Cracked Windowpane
LVT Number: 16607
Tenant complained of a reduction in services. The DRA ruled for tenant based on a cracked windowpane. Landlord appealed, claiming that the condition was minor and didn't warrant a rent reduction. The DHCR ruled against landlord. The large crack across an inner windowpane wasn't a minor condition, since it posed a potential safety hazard. Someone could be cut on the cracked glass.
