Inspectors from the Department of Buildings ordered the owners of 770 Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn, the global headquarters of the Chabad-Lubavitcher Hasidic movement, to fortify the structure and temporarily vacate parts of the buildings, and issued citations against Lubavitcher leaders who own the synagogue for two violations of work conducted without a permit.
Officials have been investigating the structural stability of the synagogue, a complex of interconnected buildings in Crown Heights often referred to simply as 770, since chaos erupted there on Monday afternoon.
