Windows Installed in Piecemeal Fashion

April 30, 2000

LVT Number: 14113

Landlord applied for MCI rent hikes based on the installation of new windows. The DRA ruled against landlord, finding that the installation wasn't building-wide. Landlord appealed and lost. The windows in most of the apartments in the building were installed over a period of years, often when the apartments were vacant. Since the windows were installed in a piecemeal fashion, landlord couldn't get any MCI rent increases.
