235 24th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232

This four-story, 2015-built property located at 235 24th Street in Sunset Park, currently owned by Shashin Gandhi, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, particularly regarding heat and safety systems. Most notably, there have been multiple instances of inadequate or no heat reported in early 2025, with related investigations by the NYC Health Department. The building has also faced significant safety violations as evidenced by multiple citations following a 2024 semi-annual homeless shelter inspection, including problems with self-closing doors (a potential fire hazard), building code compliance issues, and unauthorized electrical system installations.

The Department of Buildings issued violations in October 2024 regarding fire safety systems, door hardware, and sprinkler head obstruction, though these were later resolved with penalties totaling $10,250. The building's maintenance history shows sporadic issues with essential services, including an elevator service problem in January 2025 and multiple heat-related complaints in 2023-2025. However, the property has maintained a good record of rodent control, consistently passing rodent inspections from 2017 through 2024.

Bedbug reports over the past six years have shown no infestation cases, with all units recorded as either free of infestation or successfully treated. While the building has faced some regulatory scrutiny regarding building systems and safety compliance, the owner appears to have responded to most violations, as indicated by the "resolved" status of many citations. The recent heating system complaints in early 2025 are the most pressing current issues on record, though these complaints were filed after the most recent inspection history available shows generally satisfactory maintenance of the property.
