(i.e. common areas, base building, hotel rooms, electrical, etc.).\n\nDuring the walk through, it was confirmed that the building installed a board up door the morning of March 28, 2023 (per attached email-PDF) to block off the said area (origin of the fire) however, the remainder of the apartment has not been remediated/cleaned. This is causing a continuous smoke/odor issue to the building (The Sherry Netherland) wherein the smoke/soot odor is still being pulled from your clients unit (18th floor) into the elevator shafts, riser shafts, and other areas. This must be rectified immediately.\n\nI have given approval to the building to start cleaning the elevator shafts and close off your clients elevator doors (passenger sides) to the unit (not the freight elevators) however, if your clients unit is not going to be blocked off/cleaned up to remove the additional smoke/odor and install air scrubbers to be vented outside through a window to help alleviate the smoke/odor, AFM will be looking to have AIG cover the continuous cleaning(s) of the elevator shafts, riser shafts, and other areas of the building wherein the smoke is being pulled from your clients unit.\n\nAs we previously discussed during our joined C&O inspection on March 27, 2023, a door would be installed by the fire origin area of the unit (which was done), have the unit cleaned (all others areas of the 18th floor unit, and install a few air scrubbers to pull the smoke/odor through a window), have not been done.\n\nPlease advise when this will be done.\n\nIn addition, this email will also serve to provide you with the attached letter (2nd pdf).\n\nPlease confirm receipt of this email and letter.\n\nThank you.\n\nRegards, Mike\n\nMichael B.
