yes, it’s illegal, but what do you care? the DOB does not do spontaneous spot checks. if they did, the entire borough would be in violation of SOMETHING.

1\.  Who told you it was illegal and under what basis?  Yes, if you added it without permits it may be a problem if you get inspected. 2\.  You don’t have to let inspectors in. 3\.  Does the added kitchen conform to the stated floorplan arrangement of the C of O?
