Project Type: New Building
Project Description: Demolition of house and garage; Construction of 8 story, 12 unit residential building with below-grade parking
Status: Update 714/10: Portion of fenced collapsed.
Vacant Lot, Excavation backfilled, DOB “Stalled” classification
Background: In early 2008 plans began for demolition of a home and garage and construction of a new 8 story building. During demolition and excavation, there were numerous complaints and violations concerning defective and missing fencing.
The site was idle, permits expired in April 2009, and in July 2009 the DOB declared it as a Stalled Site.
In September 2009 the DOB filed an Emergency Declaration noting that the partial foundation had inadequate bracing and water had not been drained. The DOB ordered it backfilled to grade. The owner did not comply, so the city backfilled the excavation and installed a chain link fence.
As of an early March 2010 DOB inspection and our site visit, the lot was graded and fenced, with no activity.
