144 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11201

144 Atlantic Avenue is a 4-story, 3-unit residential building in Cobble Hill, constructed in 1852 and currently owned by Fadel Almontaser. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in late 2024, including both building-wide and apartment-specific incidents. These recent heating system problems are particularly concerning given their frequency and the building's age.

Additionally, there are some ongoing maintenance issues, including an open violation from November 2024 regarding leaky/faulty bathroom fixtures in Apartment 3, while multiple annual bedbug report filing violations remain unresolved dating back to 2021 through 2024. The building has faced some regulatory challenges in recent years, with active violations for failure to file required external low-pressure inspections for both 2021 and 2023, noted in violations issued in June and September 2024, respectively. While these violations are not directly related to resident safety, they indicate potential oversight in building maintenance procedures.

The property has a history of proper rodent control, passing an inspection in September 2017. While there was a food temperature complaint in late 2024, this appears to be related to a food establishment rather than the residential portion of the building. Separate from residential concerns, there is a recorded issue regarding a bulging/cracked wall/retaining wall that was documented in March 2025, though this was not specifically linked to the residential structure in the available data.
