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 12, 2026.

What is recorded here

The matched set includes 7 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 6 approved, 1 under review. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
