HPD status codes
What SECOND NO ACCESS TO RE-INSPECT VIOLATION means.
violations carry the status Second No Access To Re-Inspect Violation on the city record as of August 31, 2026.
What it marks on the record
HPD came back to reinspect this violation and could not get in, for the second time. The condition has not been confirmed corrected and it has not been confirmed outstanding.
What the record shows next
This is where cases go quiet. HPD sets NOT COMPLIED WITH after a reinspection confirms the condition is still there, so a violation nobody can get in to reinspect can stay open for years without ever being marked as defied.
What to do
Arrange access. A reinspection that cannot happen leaves the violation open on the record regardless of whether the work was done, and an owner who has corrected the condition gets no credit for it until someone can verify or a certification is accepted.
If you rent here
An inspector tried twice to get in and could not. If the condition is still there, calling 311 puts the request back in the queue and access can be arranged.
If you own or manage this building, correct the violation and file the certification directly with HPD. This page only tracks the public record. How to read it, and check your own building.
What happens after a second no access?
The record does not commit to a single next step. What it shows is that the violation stays open and unverified, which is the outcome this status most often leads to.
Is this the same as FIRST NO ACCESS?
It is the same problem on a second attempt. See FIRST NO ACCESS TO RE-INSPECT VIOLATION for the first.
