Record 1: ECB Violation #39187517Z — Failure to Maintain / Unsafe Condition
What the source record says
The public description for 1422 St Lawrence Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460 states: “: FAILURE TO MAINTAIN. OBSERVED IRON FENCE AT EXPOSURE#1 AND 4, NOR SECURED TO GROUND PROPERLY, CORNERS ARE TIED WITH ROPE/CHAIN. DID NOT OBSERVE ILLEGAL PARKING, NO CARS ON SIDEWALK., REPAIR AND OR REPLACE; RE” Because the inspector identified a location within the premises, photos and repair proof should match that same area. Site-safety proof should be dated because DOB focuses on conditions at the inspection time. Curb or sidewalk issues may require DOT/DOB records and proof of restoration to legal condition.
