The public description for 761 East 185 Street, Bronx, NY 10460 states: “OBSERVED OBSTRUCTED SPRINKLER HEADS THROUGHOUT BUILDING, IN BASEMENT PVC BEING USED ON SEWER MAIN, STEAM FITTINGS BEING USED ON GAS LINES PER BC 903.3.3 SPRINKLER PROTECTION AND MAITENANCE OR SPRINKLER COMPONEN” 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.
