the rear of 1811 1st Street NW

Do the posted DCRA permit(s) match the demolition worked just performed?

It has been noted that the lone permit is for interior work.

. Neighbors called yesterday & today about this "interior" project. No inspector available until Monday?

Generally, lead time is two business days. I have forwarded the pictures to our inspections team, though.

Thanks. A neighbor is very concerned about the structural integrity of the houses.

All in a day's work. (Neighbor's pics- he is on Twitter but never tweets.)

  1. I thought the same thing when I walked past this morning. I hope that people reach out to DCRA on this.

  2. I called up DCRA and they do in fact only have a permit for interior work. The guy said he won't send an inspector out until Monday but I think if enough people call about this that might change.

  3. According to the PIVS Application there is a permit B1405061 issued on 3/11/14 for "THIS PERMIT IS DEMOLITION ONLY .Remove existing walls and install new beams Replace damaged stair Replace rotten joists". That looks like they may have gone beyond the limits of the permit if it was for interior work.
