A freedom of information request has been filed to obtain more information about building permit application #24 110655 "Permit is to replace existing plumbing stacks, including dishwasher installment for apartment units.", which was cited as one of the primary justifications for the N13 eviction notices that were issued at 250 Frederick St.

The PDF document shown below may be somewhat confusing since it includes a mixture of several unrelated application permits (this is how the document was provided to me). These other 3 unrelated permit applications are 23-128784, 23-101059, 23-100726 which were mentioned previously in another post. The drawings and schematics of interest are found in the last two pages of this document.

Also, the schematic diagram provided in the document contains several inconsistencies: The diagram of the floors includes floor 13 (which does not exist in this building). It also omits floors 17 and either floor 16 or floor 15 (the text is too small to be legible). The permit overview page says "Permit Is To Replace Existing Plumbing Stacks On Floor 3 To 15 In An Apartment Building", however, tenants from all floors of this build received N13 notices.

Also of note in the diagram is some detail on the work to be done: The text is quite small, but it appears to say "EXISTING PLUMBING IN BATHROOM TO REMAIN AS IS", and "REPLACE ENTIRE LENGTH OF PLUMING STACK" "KITCHEN SINK, CONNECTIONS TO PIPES IN PLUMING STACK AS PER FIXTURES SCHEDULE"
