141 23rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232

The three-story, six-unit building at 141 23rd Street in Sunset Park, owned by Zeev Abigador, has experienced several notable issues since 2018. Most recently, in late 2023 and early 2024, there were complaints about flooring issues, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations. The building has had recurring heat and hot water problems, with complaints in 2019, 2020, and early 2022, though in each case heat and hot water were reportedly restored before inspections could be conducted.

Several safety concerns have been documented, including a fire escape issue in mid-2023 and problems with building signage in the summer of 2023, for which inspectors were unable to gain access to conduct evaluations. The building has faced multiple violations requiring attention to safety and maintenance standards. In December 2018, violations were issued regarding electrical wiring in the basement, with a penalty of $1,600, and various maintenance issues were documented in early 2019, including problems in apartment 1L related to the bathroom sink, shower stall, wall surfaces, flooring, and missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The building's bedbug reporting history indicates intermittent infestations, with the most recent report (December 2024) showing one infested unit that was eradicated. A significant violation regarding annual boiler inspection reporting was issued and dismissed in 2020, with a $1,000 penalty paid. The property has also had some structural and maintenance issues over the years, including problems with doors, stairs, and unsanitary conditions related to garbage storage, though most recent inspections show these issues have been addressed.
