The Department of Buildings served more than 30 Environmental Control Board violations across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens between August 28 and August 30, 2026, per DOB ECB Violations records (dataset 6bgk-3dad). All are listed ACTIVE with hearing status PENDING and hearing dates set for November 4 through November 10, 2026.

The single largest penalty in the batch, $10,000, went to Warner Construction Services, listed at 60 Cutter Mill Road in Great Neck, for a Class 1 violation (number 39558529X) at BIN 1012892, block 734, lot 52 in Manhattan. DOB records describe active electrical, elevator, framing, window and sheetrock work observed between 7:30 and 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, August 29, without a required site safety manager or construction superintendent present, and note elevator work that was not listed in the approved after-hours variance. The same site drew a second violation that day, number 39558528Y, for work exceeding the approved 9 a.m. start under a $1,250 penalty.

In the Bronx, a Class 1 violation (39202303X) at 970 Morris Park Avenue, BIN 2018299, ordered an immediate cease-use on an elevator after inspectors found a fuse bypassed with copper wire — a condition DOB's citation says defeats required electrical protection under ASME A17.1. The respondent of record is Group Gjonaj LLC. The violation also cites a disconnected in-car emergency communication device. Penalty: $1,250.

Two more contractors drew repeat violations at the same address within the batch. Broadway Construction Group, working a 22-story new building at 45 Broadway in Manhattan (BIN 3430357 and 3430358), was cited three times for an unresponsive watchperson and an outward-swinging fence gate, with penalties of $5,000, $2,500, and $1,000. Cross Five Construction, working a proposed 12-story building at BIN 2017185 in the Bronx, drew two citations the same week — unfilled jersey barriers and an excavator staged across the street without a DOT permit — for $2,500 and $5,000.

Electrical work without a permit accounted for five separate violations in the batch, at 2447 3rd Avenue (MPM 67 LLC, Bronx), 20 Clinton Street (213 W 23rd Street LLC, Manhattan), and two citations at 70 Emerson Drive (AB2 Corp, Great Neck address of record) — the second of those, a Class 1 for open junction boxes exposing live wires and a ground wire used as an ungrounded conductor, carried a $1,600 penalty.

Facade maintenance violations under Section 28-301.1 hit four properties for cracked or missing masonry — 660 East 183rd Street (2419 Hoffman St Rltycp, Bronx, $2,500), 408 8th Avenue (370 Operating LLC, Manhattan, $1,250), 320 2nd Avenue (T & N Family LLC, Manhattan, $2,500), and one respondent's record cut off before full details.

Separately, DOB's Complaints Received dataset logged roughly 100 new complaints citywide over the same 48 hours, spanning elevator, plumbing, construction, and safe-operations categories. A complaint is an unverified allegation, not a finding — none of the volume above is confirmed by inspection, and none of it is part of the ECB record described above.

For contractors: a hearing date is not a settlement. Every violation above is PENDING with a balance due, and ECB penalties compound with a default judgment if nobody appears. If your firm's name, BIN, or job address turns up in this list — or if you're bidding a site with an open Class 1 — check the hearing date now at the DOB ECB portal (a1.nyc.gov/dob_ecb) and confirm block, lot, and BIN against your own permits before assuming another contractor's citation.
