LVT Number: 17163

Landlord applied for MCI rent hikes based on pointing and waterproofing.

Landlord appealed, claiming that it had corrected all violations. The DHCR ruled against landlord. Landlord had previously applied for MCI rent hikes for the same improvements. The prior application was denied because of the ''C'' violations. Landlord never appealed the prior decision.
