Remember when we told you the Kardashians were about to make Soho sidewalks even more impossible to walk through? Turns out, the sisters have ties to a different issue that's ruining the neighborhood—literally.

According to Bowery Boogie, the massive building at 63 Spring Street that was supposedly purchased by the Kardashian industrial complex this summer (likely to to make way for a Dash store) has been violating laws set for the Soho Cast Iron Historic District in which it resides.

Owner Jack Terzi (who personally gave Khloe and Kourtney their tour of the space) was hit with two violations from the Landmark Preservation Commission last week—one for non-permitted signage, and another for unauthorized storefront alteration.

The culprit, however, isn't Dash: It's Ricky's NYC, which has been operating in the ground floor retail space as an "Urgent Beauty Care" pop-up for the past few weeks.

No word on when the Kardashians will take up residence there, but sometime post-Halloween, a retail space will occupy the bottom two floors of the building, with three floors that will act as office space for the sisters, creating what sounds to be a rather excessive five-story Kardashian Kastle.
