Update Thursday, 12/2/2023: Syracuse Code Enforcement confirmed that a trailer/boiler arrived at the property and an installer and electrician are on site for installation. Management expects restoration of heat beginning as soon as possible after installation, city officials said.

The apartment management reports that permanent replacement boilers are ordered and are expected to arrive in the next 2-4 weeks; the temporary system will remain on site until new boilers are in operation.
