250 53rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 250 53rd Street property is a three-story, six-unit old law tenement building located in Sunset Park, constructed in 1908 and currently owned by Jorge Gamba. The building's maintenance history reveals several recurring issues, with the most significant concerns centering around heat and water systems, especially between 2019-2022.

There have been three documented heat/hot water complaints, including one affecting the entire building in December 2019 and another concerning a single apartment in February 2020. Water-related issues were notable in 2019-2021, with a slow leak complaint in October 2021 and multiple unresolved sanitary conditions involving mold and pest problems in July 2019, though specific violations were issued for mold and other issues in the building's Unit 1L at that time.

The building has experienced periodic electrical issues, with a power outage reported in July 2022, and there are currently four open bedbug reporting violations from 2019 through 2024 that remain unresolved. Most recently, in June 2023, a violation was issued for failure to file the 2019 external low-pressure inspection, which is still active. While many past complaints have been resolved, including a food establishment issue from September 2019 and multiple heater complaints, the building has persistent regulatory non-compliance concerning bedbug reporting requirements and some outstanding maintenance issues primarily affecting Unit 1L, including problems with plaster surfaces, wall and ceiling conditions, and mold presence.
