But don't worry, they'll surely take your money (thousands of it). They are basically a messenger service, and charge $300 per piece of paper (that's a real quote). They also avoid phone calls like it's their job - you'll have to beg, scream and cry before anyone will call you back. Even then, "VP" Tara won't (but her name will appear all over your documents as if she's actually doing something to help you). Biggest joke.

A few weeks later Glenn arrived to take measurements, he was also very pleasant to deal with. I was constantly kept in the loop and informed by the team, including two wonderful women that I am very appreciative of, Stephanie and Tara. I think RMB is excellent for architectural, expediting and much more. This team is made up of consummate professionals who keep you briefed every step of the way, and are willing to work with you on your vision. I cannot recommend them more, I've had an excellent experience.

In August 2024 I began the process of closing two TOH open permits filed in the 1950s. I began with…read morean expediting company in Rockville Center (who name I will not reveal) that started the TOH process to close the permits. After the cost related to electrical and plumbing inspections, architectural drawing, TOH fees and months of delays, I took my details to Mark Anthony's firm in North Bellmore in Late December 2025. I explained the difficulties with the expeditor to Ashley, a member of the business's staff; she immediately connected me to Don Amen. After explaining the open permits and delays, he said the firm would take over my case and began to explain Mark Anthony's fees, TOH fees, schedules and the inspections process. Over the next four months, communications with Don were nothing short of exemplary. His expertise with the permit process, research of my home and property, drawings that needed to be prepared for the TOH and anticipated scheduling was outstanding. The process became more complicated because the original expeditor did not include a major part of what the TOH expected due to finishing that had to be maintained after alterations and renovations over the years. In addition, supplemental drawings and permit clarifications had to be submitted to the TOH. With the sale/closing of my home set for April 2026, Don assured me the predicted schedule would be met and was very patient; consistently and quickly responding to my "million" emails (certainly provided a "calm me down' feeling through a difficult TOH process). As expected, drawings were delivered, all changes were updated and the inspection process was ready. After numerous TOH fees for closing permits, inspections and certificate of completion were paid, happy to report that the permits are now CLOSED. I would certainly recommend Mark Anthony's firm for permits issues. His entire staff is very knowledgeable with the TOH minutia of guidelines. The process of researching codes going back to 1950 and checking for current standards is certainly an expertise that one develops over many years of experience, and to incorporate those details within a complete set of drawings is very time consuming and amazing, This firm is one that you should employ immediately if you are searching for help with any TOH issues. The process takes time, but, in 2026 it's difficult for find a company that delivers quality with the highest form of professionalism...that's what Mark Anthony's staff delivers.

As a contractor, I rely on dependable professionals to maintain my reputation--and unfortunately, this experience was anything but dependable.

Checking in every few months shouldn't be considered excessive, yet even that seemed too much for them. Eventually, they went completely silent. Do your homework before hiring. In this business, reliability matters--and once that trust is broken, there's no going back. They won't be used again, and they know why.

I purchased a home and AM/PM design was the architect for a gut renovation project of a two family…read moreinto a single family home in Queens. The design and floor plan of this house was one of the best layouts we've seen and a big reason we went through with the home purchase. The original owner however never closed out the work permits with the GC that he used, so Arnold and his team helped me navigate a very cumbersome NYC DOB electric, gas and construction approval process so I could obtain the final CO. Arnold and his team were communicative and guided us along the way. Appreciate their help closing it out and would recommend them!

We cannot say enough good things about the AMPM staff! We found Arnie about 2 years before we were…read moreconvinced we actually wanted to renovate our Queens 2-story, one family home. During that period we consulted with Arnie roughly three to four times on the things we'd need to get done (including an extensive asbestos abatement) without charging us a dime. When we were ready to go into contract, Arnie and his team helped us design an absolutely beautiful project that included an upgrade to every facet of our home. Shortly thereafter COVID hit and our project was significantly delayed. We were, however, lucky that Arnie and his amazing staff availed themselves during business and non-business hours to advise us on a variety of issues from navigating the DOBNOW webpages to reasonable locations to get quartz countertops. No project is without obstacles and between energy efficient windows and the skyrocketing price of wood, we DEFINITELY had our fair share. We can definitely attest that Arnie, Celia and their professional and knowledgeable staff made the navigation of those pitfalls a LOT easier. We can say in no uncertain terms that we highly recommend the use of AMPM for your next construction project. Thanks Arnie! Mr & Mrs. Jones

Probably the worst business experience of my life. "Terrible" is too kind…read more Eagle Design Associates absolutely screwed up our project *almost* beyond the point of no return. Instead I was stuck with many unnecessary bills to re-do the work they screwed up, and many agonizing months of trouble and fines. The drafting job they did for us was so atrocious the local Building Department head chewed me out in front of the entire office and then practically threw me out the door. That was absolutely the most uncomfortable and humiliating experience of my entire professional life. And I owe it all to Eagle Design Associates. Dennis Oliver-- who drew up the plans-- was horrible and unprofessional. He took zero responsibility for his terrible work. He never offered to make things right. Never offered to redo the work and fix. Wort of all, he started hiding from the problem and would not return calls. After leaving many many un-returned messages, the secretary tells me "He doesn't want to speak with you." I said "He could at least have the decency to return my calls" "No," she said, "he doesn't have the decency." If it was legal to punch a guy for being a jerk, I would have driven right over. Instead, I am sharing this with you. AVOID!

Dennis went above and beyond to make sure we were completely satisfied with our plans and handled all comments by town in a most timely manner. I highly recommend him to homeowners who know little about the whole building department process, permits, variances, etc. On top of it all he was a gentleman and a great guy to chat with!
