Resident concerned over cracks caused by excavation work in lot next door
As noted earlier this week, the city issued a Stop Work Order at 118 E. First St. near Avenue A.
There is a complaint on file with the DOB stating that the excavation work caused an adjacent building to shake, with visible cracks forming.
A longtime resident who lives adjacent to the construction site shared this photo montage, showing the cracks on the building and in the tenant's apartment...
Per the resident: "I am not feeling safe here."
For now, the city will only allow for crews to do "emergency remedial work at rear exposure to install bracing." That work hasn't occurred just yet, the resident said.
Until the Stop Work Order, workers were prepping the lot for a 9-story residential building with seven residences and a retail space.
