The Department of Buildings logged seven new complaints across four boroughs on October 12, per DOB Complaints Received records.
None of the seven has produced a violation, a stop-work order, or any other enforcement action as of this writing — a complaint is an unverified report to the agency, not a finding.
In Queens, DOB received complaint 4A54831 for 1874 Grove Street in Ridgewood (ZIP 11385), filed under complaint category 45, and complaint 4A54833 for 137-28 169th Street in Jamaica (ZIP 11434), filed under category 85.
Also in Queens, complaint 4A54832 was entered for 31-53 34th Street in Astoria (ZIP 11106), routed to the agency's Construction Safety Enforcement unit under category 23.
In Manhattan, complaint 1738763 covers 164 Sherman Avenue in Inwood (ZIP 10034), routed to DOB's Special Operations unit under category 49.
Brooklyn generated two complaints: 3A84368 at 203 Avenue F in Kensington (ZIP 11218), category 83, and 3A84367 at 340 St Johns Place in Prospect Heights (ZIP 11238), category 54.
In the Bronx, complaint 2452049 was entered for 810 River Avenue, near Yankee Stadium (ZIP 10451), and was routed to DOB's elevator unit under category 6M.
Contractors and owners at any of these eight addresses should expect a DOB inspector follow-up; a complaint can trigger a site visit even before it is substantiated.
Anyone with an active permit or ongoing work at these locations should pull the complaint number and check the Building Information System for status updates, since a category tied to elevator or construction-safety work can escalate quickly if an inspector finds an active condition.
