306 Chauncey Street, Brooklyn · BBL 3015130028 · BIN 3041010
Brooklyn's entry near the top of the outstanding-balance list: hundreds of open records on a single Bed-Stuy lot, most tracing back to a handful of uncured underlying conditions.

What drives the score
Jobs without a final sign-off or Letter of Completion surface in every title search, lender review, and TCO/CO application.
Long-dormant open jobs usually require re-filing or an LS-1 withdrawal before the DOB will close them.
Work performed after permit expiration cannot be inspected or signed off until the permit is renewed.
Active DOB violations must be corrected and dismissed before a Certificate of Occupancy or Letter of Completion is issued.
ECB violations carry civil penalties; unpaid balances accrue and block DOB sign-offs.
Failure-to-file and safety-equipment violations must be resolved with the issuing unit before sign-offs, and several carry compounding civil penalties.
