Assemblymember Jeffrey Dinowitz says the lot is littered with trash, broken glass and overgrown weeds and is completely open to the public with only caution tape strung across.
The Department of Buildings says inspectors previously ordered the property owner to hire a professional engineer to assess slope stability and following 311 complaints, filed in late August.
