From the NY Times:

It is O.K. to take photos while standing in public spaces near federal buildings, after all. In a settlement with the New York Civil Liberties Union reached Monday, the federal government agreed to instruct its employees in writing of the “public’s general right to photograph the exterior of federal courthouses from publicly accessible spaces” and to remind them that “there are currently no general security regulations prohibiting exterior photography by individuals from publicly accessible spaces, absent a written local rule, regulation or order.”
