Boiler Relocated

LVT Number: 11297

Landlord applied for MCI rent hikes for a number of improvements, including boiler relocation. The DRA ruled for landlord and tenants appealed, claiming the boiler was moved to benefit a commercial restaurant operating in the building. The DHCR ruled against tenants. An inspection found no proof that the space previously housing the boiler was being used by commercial tenant. And there was no proof that the boiler relocation was done solely to construct the commercial space or benefit the commercial tenant.
