The Department of Buildings has 1 open notice on record for this building, out of 65 notices on file; the most recent was issued Sep 3, 2019.

  • Sprinkler

    Issued Sep 3, 2019 — FAILED TO FILE FINAL SPRINKLER REPORT BY JULY 1, 2019

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 2, 2026.
