DOB Filling

Is there a way to check the status of a DOB filling online.

Is there a link you can point me too?

Do I need the filling number, or can you do it by block/lot or address.

! New Parking regulations in Sth Slope !

I was walking down 7th ave yesterday and noticed (thanks to Big Nose, Full Body wine store) that at least from 9th St south, they have changed the parking restrictions.

Its now 1 hr parking and street cleaning EVERY day

Just a heads up

C of O Question

We are in contract to buy a townhouse. The previous owner bought it as a two family and renovated to make it a one family. He was in the process of changing the C of O to a 1 family when he put it up for sale

Now the sale is being held up because it hasn’t gone through yet.

My question is, does it really need to be changed?
I would rather it stay as a 2 family, so that it gives us more options

Are both the beaches public?

8 reasons why 14th st is over valued

1. The block is ugly
2. $1,995,000
3. The second floor "sitting room" is a waste of space
4. $1,995,000
5. Its a 1 family in a 2 family body
6. $1,995,000
7 Its two doors from a Foot Locker
8. Its July 18 2008 and you're listing it for $1,995,000

We've used him twice. VERY thorough.
He's around $800, but you get what you pay for

The law about bars being a certain distance from a school or a church is so that priests don't get hammered and go trolling for underage boys

Yeah, you, me, Whuh and a few other people.

So how much worse do you think this is going to get? You said at one point that you thought you may have under-estimated this disaster. What do you think now?

And what happens if Congress doesn't buy Paulson's plan ASAP? I'm trying to find articles that explain this to a non-financial person. Do you have any faith in Bernake, or does that even matter now that Paulson wants to/may be "Kinged".

It's really fucking bad! Damn, I underestimated the dynamics of this Mutant Asset Bubble.

I said before "you are watching a Depression unfold in front of you" and the greatest transfer of wealth in history.

This is DEFCON 5 shit!

Please don't tell anyone I'm around. I'm on Covert-Ops...

Like I explained before: The BIG BOYS don't lose, ever!!!! They have hijacked the American Republic and are Ass raping every thing in sight. Bernake and Paulson are the "Hit Men" and the American Taxslave is the "Mark"!

The next President will have some tough choices to make because the Bush Cabal is leaving a steaming pile of Shit for them to clean up....

BTW They anit fucking teasing me now, huh!

Covert Ops - you're a riot! You got it.

Why not do the RTC/HomeFed plan a la S&L bailout? My sister worked on that years ago. I mean any idiot can see why they want a blank check - can i have one too. [smirk]. This 'section 8' business is beyond belief. I knew they were brazen, but they have surpassed my cynicism with this one.

Nope, no one's teasing you now What. No siree bub.

Can Barack do it? I don't trust McPain one bit.

So how do you like our friend Whuh?

"Why not do the RTC/HomeFed plan a la S&L bailout?"

Yep but, where is the money coming from? Taxes, Investment Banking, Real Estate, Bonds???? LMMFAO!!!

"I mean any idiot can see why they want a blank check - can i have one too. [smirk]. This 'section 8' business is beyond belief. I knew they were brazen, but they have surpassed my cynicism with this one."

Nope cobblehiller, the average American is a fucking retard (I mean that). They splash this shit all over the news and the Ass-heads can't comprehend what's happening. This thru the "Dumbing Down" part of America. remember the movie Idiocracy? That why the Big Boys will get this deal done, it's been in the work for months.

"Can Barack do it? I don't trust McPain one bit."

I think McInsane is your next President. Remember about the "Retarded American" thing! I rest my case..

"So how do you like our friend Whuh?"

That's my new friend! He's me with a education (LMMFAO!). I loved the way he just POWED DIBS! Just lovely!

Anyway I'm back to Cover-Ops, What out.....

Oh one more thing! I'm glad that people are now understanding that your "elected officials" don't work for you, they work for the Corporate interests of the world!

Posted by: what at September 24, 2008 10:09 PM in response to The end of the Mutant Asset Bubble...

Taxes, sigh. Or... I know, I know! Let's borrow it from China! [retch]

Ugh, don't even joke about McPain, it gives me nightmares.

Mmm, that was a lovely moment. I'm a fan.

Good news! Bush is finally getting better at reading the teleprompter.

Over and out, What - come back and visit from time to time, as the drama unfolds...

P.S. I'm guessing you've had an education, too, just a guess.

I doubt any of this will prevent the putsch-excuse me, bailout--Nevertheless, I've been emailing and faxing our elected representatives to express my, er, reservations. This little taxpayer will go down swinging!

Kevin Phillips' new book Bad Money is a good one-stop explanation of this unfolding disaster and why we are all affected, even supposedly bullet-proof New York City. Not hatin', just sayin

Hey cobblehiller- maybe you and What should get a room somewhere. You keep making comments about why Mr. B blocked What, "Although I will say this about that - What said some pretty atrocious stuff over time, so I'm having a little disconnect imagining what he could have said that was much worse, and would finally push Mr. B over the edge after putting up with some pretty c/rude stuff for quite awhile." what is your problem with Mr. B? You seem to be having plenty of fun on his blog/dime. Get over it already.
