Living Dangerously, Part II: Hazardous Conditions Edition

128 N 10

Our old friend 128 N. 10th Street in Williamsburg earned itself a Stop Work Order recently due to conditions at the work site. We’re no building inspectors, but we believe the situation captured above by our Greenpoint correspondent would be one of the reasons for the order, specifically “No permit obtained for scaffold that exceeds 40′ in height.” The other problem includes “inadequate housekeeping,” a condition to which many of us can no doubt relate, except that we’re not construction sites. Among the problems: “debris throughout the site in an unsafe manner” and “safeguards missing for public and workers.” Nice.
