Sunken Bathroom Floor

LVT Number: 14342

DOB issued a violation notice to landlord for a sunken bathroom floor and missing fire-rated ceiling in the building cellar. Landlord objected. The ALJ ruled against landlord and fined her $350. Landlord appealed, claiming that tenant wouldn't grant access to the apartment to fix the floor. ECB again ruled against landlord. Landlord was required to maintain the building in a safe condition and hadn't done so.
