HI Kay, I think you'll probably want to have a formal survey done on the property to determine who "owns" the tree since the survey will determine exactly where the property lines are. I gather it's a dead tree that needs to be removed?
Sorry I forgot to quote you...
The tree is good. Just wondering where my property ends and the neighbors begin.

I guess that's not something the city would have? I've been trying to find any property records and/or existing building plans.

Thanks Ben,
No, It's not a dead tree. I just got the property and wanted to know. How do I go about having a formal survey done?

Where do I go to find the property line? I have a tree on the side of the property and I'm not sure who's tree it is.

You need a permit for that in Philadelphia.
How do they know if it was a door before?

How do I find out what the existing plans are for the property? I'm thinking about making an existing door into a window thats on the side entrance. I have 2 other doors of egress. Can I do that without filing for a permit?
