I've just moved into a new apartment in a prewar building (built 1914). Now that we're here, I'm noticing just how severely sloped the floors are. It doesn't necessarily bother me to have sloped floors, but I don't know how worried I should be about this, since it seems like a whole part of the building is sagging. Maybe I'm just paranoid after reading about that building collapse in Park Slope. But is this something to worry about? As far as I can tell, no HPD or DOB complaints have been made about it so far.

Better view of that crack - it's been filled in, so it's not new:

The sloping is bad enough that my apartment's cabinets come out from under the counter. Originally just figured it was shoddy construction in a cheap apartment, but now I'm worried it could have given way after installation

For what it's worth, there are also small cracks in other parts of the facade and the floors of the building hallways. The cracks tend to run parallel to the side that's sagging.
So if this IS something to worry about, what should I do now? The landlord says he's aware and it's nothing to worry about, but I'm obviously taking that with a grain of salt. More than anything I'd want this looked at by a structural engineer but I don't imagine there's a way to convince him to do that?
