Record 1: ECB Violation #39545706P — Stop Work Order / Continued Work
What the source record says
The public description for 701 Prospect Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216 states: “OBSERVATION: 2ND FLOOR HAS STAGE/MODELED ROOMS. UPON MY REQUEST FOR STAGE/MODEL ROOM PERMITS NONE WAS PROVIDED. PSWO FOR NO STAGE ROOM PERMITS, STOP ALL WORK ON STAGE/MODELED ROOMS. PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 28-105.” Because the inspector identified a location within the premises, photos and repair proof should match that same area. 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
The public record indicates work after, around, or in conflict with a Stop Work Order. DOB uses Stop Work Orders to stop activity until safety, permit, or compliance issues are addressed.
What a hearing on this record may have focused on
