New York Shitty Day Starter: Another DOB Complaint Lodged Against 239 Banker Street
Lest the Department of Buildings needs any help verifying this complaint I offer this video, shot August 6, 2012:
These photos taken one month later (September 6th) by an anonymous tipster:
And this image which was taken September 10, 2012 by yours truly:
New York Shitty analysis:
- The only thing this complainer failed to note is that the owners of 239 Banker Street are violating a Stop Work Order. This is understandable given they have removed the Stop Work Order from their building (which is in and of itself a violation of the law).
- And despite (0r more likely to due to) a Loft Law application, the landlord is going about business as usual…
But I suppose this makes for even more tenants to organize. It is my understanding the Loft Law (and its revision) were intended to preserve the artistic integrity/fabric of our community. Speaking as an artist, I fail to see how stainless steel appliances and $2,700+ a month rent are crucial factors in “displacement prevention”.
