Is 2730 Frederick Douglass Boulevard, Manhattan getting better or worse?

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 2730 Frederick Douglass Boulevard, Manhattan?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 3 Class C violations, all 3 after the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Yes. 4 active DOB violations, most of them for low-pressure boilers. The newest was issued June 20, 2023.
