In a November 21 letter to Robert Scarano, DOB Borough Commish Magdi Mossad wrote, “Our inspection revealed a number of issues throughout the building that must be addressed prior to any renewal odf the issued T.C.O.” According to a tipster though, while Mossad was on vacation last week, developer Isaac Fischman mysteriously got the T.C.O. renewed, despite outstanding conditions like the unfinished outdoor balconies that we hear are leaking water into some of the units. Meanwhile, purchasers are being told to close as soon as this week! The whole thing stinks to high heaven. Any buyers out there know more about what’s happening? What’s the status of the mezzanines?
