145 22nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232

The two-family building at 145 22nd Street in Sunset Park, owned by Nelson Mir, was constructed in 1910 and has undergone previous conversions to become a Class A residence. Most notably, in February 2024, the property experienced a significant cluster of maintenance issues that resulted in multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints, including problems with plumbing fixtures (toilets and sinks), appliances (refrigerator and electric/gas range), window frames, safety concerns (smoke detector), and unsanitary conditions (mold and pests).

These complaints were all resolved within a few weeks, with inspections conducted by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) revealing no violations. Prior to this incident, the building had one documented Housing Maintenance Code violation from March 2023 regarding the annual bedbug report filing requirement, though this appears to be an administrative issue rather than a safety concern.

Importantly, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations in its official filings dating back to 2019, with no units reported as infested, eradicated, or re-infested during any of the annual reporting periods. All recent complaints from February 2024 have been closed without violations being issued, suggesting that while there were multiple simultaneous maintenance issues, these were addressed promptly and did not result in any ongoing violations of housing codes. The building's age and history as a heretofore converted Class A residence in New York City are consistent with typical urban housing stock in this neighborhood, though the recent cluster of maintenance requests suggests potential for monitoring of building systems and maintenance practices.
