Record 1: ECB Violation #39191846L — Work Without Permit / Unapproved Construction
What the source record says
The public description for 2914 Brighton 8 Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235 states: “AT TIME OF INSPECTION, OBSERVED, AN ILLEGAL CURB CUT APPROXIMATELY 8FT IN FRONT OF BUILDING WITHOUT ANY PERMIT ON CITY RECORD., OBTAIN ALL PERMITS; OBTAIN A PERMIT OR RESTORE CURB TO PRIOR LEGAL CONDITION” Because the inspector identified a location within the premises, photos and repair proof should match that same area. Curb or sidewalk issues may require DOT/DOB records and proof of restoration to legal condition.
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

Documents and proof worth reviewing now
- before-and-after photos

- approved drawings
Why this should not be ignored
Unpermitted work can block approvals, complicate closing or refinancing, and trigger repeat penalties.
