Where should cameras go on a Cobble Hill brownstone?

The critical camera positions for a Cobble Hill brownstone: (1) stoop/front entrance facing the sidewalk, (2) rear garden or yard, (3) parlor floor hallway if multi-unit, (4) any side alley or passageway. For Cobble Hill brownstones with basement apartments, add a camera covering the below-grade entrance. We use discreet dome cameras that don’t clash with historic architecture.
