Record 1: ECB Violation #35684171M — Stop Work Order / Continued Work
What the source record says
The public description for 483 Maple Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225 states: “WORK WITHOUT A PERMIT. NOTED 2ND FLOOR UNIT FRONT DOOR FRAME REMOVED(FIRE RATED DOOR) ENLARGE DOOR FRAME, PERFORMING INTERNAL REQUISTION. PARTIAL STOP WORK ORDER AT 2ND FLOOR. REMEDY: OBTAIN PERMITS.” 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. The Stop Work Order timeline should be checked carefully, including service date, scope, and any allowed safety work or rescission.
What this category usually means
