- Description
- Scaffolding has been installed directly in front of my windows, and it is blocking the windows and making the apartment feel enclosed and unusable. I am concerned that this may affect required light, ventilation, window operation, privacy, and possibly emergency egress. During the day, the construction noise also makes it very difficult to remain in the apartment. This situation is also severely affecting my anxiety and has been triggering panic symptoms because the blocked windows and bars make the apartment feel like a prison. I would like to request that an inspector check: Whether the scaffolding/construction is properly permitted. Whether my apartment still meets housing-code requirements for light and ventilation. Whether the windows or any emergency exits/egress are improperly blocked. Whether the construction schedule/noise is compliant with Boston rules. Whether any correction or mitigation is required from the landlord/building management. I have photos and videos documenting the condition and can provide them. Please let me know how I can submit them and how to schedule an inspection. Thank you for your help. | Any children under 6 years of age: [No] Occupants name and contact info: [Same as Caller]

Resolved. Project is properly permitted, with notice from management company of work commencement. Scaffolding is currently being set up with the actual work not scheduled to begin until next week in which mechanical grinding and repointing will start.
