Nineteen open DOB violation cases are scheduled for OATH/ECB hearings on September 28, according to the city's Case Status dataset — a docket that runs from unfiled boiler reports to a structural order still unresolved more than three years after it was issued.
The largest balance on the list belongs to 475 Washington Avenue in Brooklyn (block 1979, lot 7503), where 475 Wash Owner LLC faces a $6,280 balance for failing to comply with a Commissioner's order tied to an earlier violation, 05122023C0201DL, that required an engineer's report on a structurally deficient condition. DOB records show the case defaulted once already and has been rescheduled for a phone hearing at 8:00 a.m.
A cluster of facade and wall-maintenance cases fills out much of the rest. Loring Equities Inc., at 2280 Loring Place in the Bronx (block 3225, lot 15), faces a $10,000 penalty for deteriorating mortar joints cited under Section 28-302. Gallery House Condominium, at 77 West 55th Street in Manhattan (block 1271, lot 7501), carries a matching $10,000 penalty for spalling brick at the roofline. Abigail J. Shachat, respondent for 427 17th Street in Brooklyn (block 869, lot 49), faces a $12,500 penalty over a two-car garage with brick facade in disrepair and a severely compromised parapet wall — the largest single penalty in the batch.
Three annual boiler inspection reports also went unfiled, per DOB records: Klondike Management Inc. at 635 East 228th Street in the Bronx, Raizy 123 LLC at 728 Avenue U in Brooklyn, and Gora Realty LLC at 985 Anderson Avenue in the Bronx each face $3,125 for missing the Local Law-mandated report under 1 RCNY 103-01(d)(1).
Two Staten Island cases at 18 Bryson Avenue, respondent Larissa M. Maiorana, involve an unpermitted rear-yard shed — electrical work without a permit, a zoning setback violation, and work without a permit, three separate tickets totaling more than $5,000 in penalties tied to the same structure.
One case, at 3007 Decatur Avenue in the Bronx, has already concluded: DOB records show a completed hearing finding 367 E 201 LLC in violation for a broken tile floor, a broken bathroom sink, a ceiling hole, and non-working electrical lights in an apartment hallway and bathroom, plus broken concrete outside a separate unit. The $1,250 penalty shows a zero balance with compliance status "All Terms Met."
For contractors and property managers named in these dockets, a defaulted hearing does not make the underlying violation go away — it adds to the balance and keeps the case open until someone shows up or pays. Owners tracking their own portfolio addresses can check hearing status directly through the city's OATH/ECB Case Status lookup before September 28.
