Sounds as if you really need to check out the certificate of occupancy. First, to make a case for substantial rehabilitation, the landlord needs to show the certificate of occupancy before and after the construction work. If he didn't get one to show the work, this should have been presented to DHCR as an important part of your case. (If he didn't, and it wasn't presented, you should try to get it admitted now. And ask your lawyer why it wasn't before. Perhaps think about hiring a new lawyer, depending on the response.) Second, even if he did get a proper c of 0 for any post-fire work, I think he would need one for a new door, particularly one allowing access to nightclub patrons.
