No more than 10' from sleeping quarters for co dets.

There is NOTHING in the NEC about this, you need to check the building codes. In NYC you may vary from place to place.
We'd use the NYS Resi COde, but in a multi-family dwelling this would not apply.

You should find requirements on some state of local document such as>

http://firesafety.vermont.gov/sites.../Code Info Sheets/2012 smoke alarms guide.pdf

But the actual placement , inches from ceiling for ex. should be a 110.3B manfacturers instruction

You need to follow manufactures specs in their installation Manuel as well as to conforming to NYC BUILDING. CODES which ever is greater of the two. CITY codes superceed manufactures specs.
