Violation record
Are there open violations here?
The Department of Buildings has 1 open notice on record for this building, out of 181 notices on file; the most recent was issued Feb 27, 2026.
- Elevator
Issued Feb 27, 2026 — AN INJURY OCCURRED TO A MECHANIC DURING MAINTENANCE. AS PER 28-301.1 OF THE NYC BC AND 1 RCNY 103-02, THE OWNER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING THE EQUIPMENT IN A SAFE CONDITION AT ALL TIMES. DUE TO THE OCCURRENCE OF A MAINTENANCE-RELATED INJURY, THE CONDITION OF THE DEVICE AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT MUST BE EVALUATED PENDING FURTHER
A violation is a notice the Department of Buildings recorded against the building. It is not a judgment, and many concern paperwork rather than safety. Open means the agency has not recorded a resolution, which is not the same as the problem still existing. From NYC Department of Buildings, DOB Violations (3h2n-5cm9), accessed Sep 5, 2026.
