Record 1: ECB Violation #39187946R — Work Without Permit / Unapproved Construction
What the source record says
The public description for 2852 Randall Avenue, Bronx, NY 10465 states: “DURING THE INSPECTION, OBSERVED PARTITION WALLS BEING INSTALLED IN THE CELLAR USING 2X6 FRAMING ACROSS THE ENTIRE SPACE, EFFECTIVELY CREATING SEPARATE ROOMS. THERE ARE NO PERMITS ON FILE FOR THIS SCOPE OF WORK.” Because the inspector identified a location within the premises, photos and repair proof should match that same area. Permit history should be compared against the alleged work, approved plans, contractor invoices, and any restoration or legalization path.
What this category usually means
The record appears to involve work DOB alleges was performed without required approval, permit issuance, or approved documents.
What a hearing on this record may have focused on
A hearing on this type of record may have asked whether the observed work existed, whether a permit covered it, whether the respondent was legally responsible, and whether the work was restored or legalized.
Documents and proof worth reviewing now
- before-and-after photos
- contractor records
- legalization or restoration proof
- permits
- approved drawings
Why this should not be ignored
Unpermitted work can block approvals, complicate closing or refinancing, and trigger repeat penalties.
