An inspection at 1155 East 35th Street in Brooklyn's Midwood section turned up five separate ECB violations in a single sweep, according to DOB Environmental Control Board records — including an open, live gas line that utility crews had to lock down on site.
The respondent of record is Midwood 35th Realty LLC. Per DOB records, an inspector traced an open gas line back to the meter for Apartment 4B and found a tee splitting off to two other locations that could not be traced; National Grid removed the meter and locked the service, and the violation notes all gas piping in the building was affected. That violation, number 39204223P, is a Class 1 — DOB's most serious category — with a $2,500 penalty and a hearing set for November 25.
The same address drew four more violations dated September 15: missing fire-stopping around exposed wood joists in an occupied first-floor space (39204230N), malfunctioning and non-rated fire doors at a gas meter room and an egress door (39204227M), an active water leak in a basement gym (39204222N), and a separate maintenance violation (39204205L, borough record for block 00997 lot 0040 lists a related additional citation the same day). All are logged as Class 1 or Class 2 with hearings scheduled for November 25 at DOB's ECB tribunal.
Elsewhere in the same batch of September 15 violations, DOB cited MJH Construction Corp at a Myrtle Avenue site in Brooklyn (BIN 3000000, block 04690, lot 0073) for continuing work — bringing in an additional knuckle-boom truck to deliver structural material — while a partial stop-work order was in effect. That violation, 39559185X, carries a $10,000 penalty, the aggravated end of ECB's fine scale for defying a stop-work order.
Also in the batch: LiteHouse Builders Inc was cited at a site in Staten Island (BIN 3184057, block 06821, lot 0244) for missing safety debris netting on a scaffold in multiple sections, not just at the loading area — a falling-object hazard, per the violation description, with a $2,500 penalty and a November 25 hearing. And Innovative Constr NYC LLC was cited at 130 Lee Avenue in Brooklyn for a six-story new building with no overhead protection over an adjacent property's balcony and an incomplete facade — a $10,000 penalty, the maximum in this batch.
All violations listed carry ACTIVE status and PENDING hearings as of this writing; none has been adjudicated. DOB's ECB violation database (dataset 6bgk-3dad) is the source for every figure above.
