      Surely built before NYC had fire codes. In that case, do some buildings with “historical value” somehow get grandfathered in?

        Yeah, at least in most cases. They get labeled as “legal non-conforming” and usually are required to become conforming in the event there is any major reconstruction done to fix a casualty event.
