Defective Condition Not Cited in Prior Order

LVT Number: 11829

Tenants complained of a reduction in building-wide services. The DRA ruled for tenants and reduced their rents. Landlord later applied for rent restorations, claiming that all services had been restored. The DRA ruled against landlord, finding that the one condition not restored was the building's entrance door. The door didn't operate properly since it got stuck and wouldn't close. Landlord appealed. The condition in question was restoration of the door check to the front door, which landlord had restored. The DHCR ruled for landlord and restored rents.
