510 Madison Ave. gets stop-work order

Macklowe Properties’ 510 Madison Avenue has gotten a partial stop-work order from the Department of Buildings, which halted work on parts of six floors. The 30-story tower will house a Tourneau watch store. The DOB said inspectors found a scaffold without a permit, “failure to safeguard all persons and property” and “failure to provide adequate protection between personnel hoist and curtain wall.” A construction worker was hospitalized last week when an unidentified object from the site. The Real Deal reported on the spec project in its May issue.
