342 54th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220
342 54th Street is a 4-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building in Sunset Park, owned by Harry Philippou and constructed in 1931. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergency service requests recorded in December 2024 (currently open) and December 2024 (closed after restoration of services). The building has also faced multiple infestation challenges, with open violations as of December 2024 related to both roaches and mice in apartment 3R.
In early 2023, several maintenance issues were documented including problems with floors, windows, ceilings, and the intercom system in various units (2R and others), with some resulting in violations that required correction. The building's heating system has been a persistent concern, with similar emergency complaints recorded in January 2019. Despite these ongoing challenges, the property has maintained a bedbug-free status, with official reports from 2021 through 2024 indicating zero infested units during the annual reporting periods.
A rodent inspection in 2016 resulted in a passing grade, though the building's current open violations suggest some continued pest management challenges. The intercom system's functionality has been a recurring issue, with violations noted in 2023, and general maintenance problems have affected multiple units as evidenced by various HPD complaints and violations over the years. The most pressing current concern appears to be the unresolved heat and hot water issues as of December 2024, which marks the fourth such complaint in this building's recent history.
