Is 163 Court Street, Brooklyn getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 10 open Class C, with 4 certifications filed and 5 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends September 26, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.
When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 163 Court Street, Brooklyn?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 5 Class C violations, all 5 by the original certify-by date. HPD now marks 1 of them False Certification. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.
Has DOB received complaints about 163 Court Street, Brooklyn?
Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the last 12 months. It was filed September 5, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.
Does 163 Court Street, Brooklyn have a certificate of occupancy?
Its latest certificate of occupancy is a final one, issued September 21, 2021. A certificate of occupancy says how a building may be used and occupied.
