1902 8th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The 8-unit, 4-story tenement building at 1902 8th Avenue (Windsor Terrace, built 1931, owned by Benjamin Espinoza Sr) has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past year. From September 2024 to February 2025, there were multiple complaints and violations related to building systems and safety, including two heat/hot water issues (one for the entire building and one apartment-specific) in September 2024 and February 2025 that resulted in HPD violations, and multiple plumbing problems including a steam pipe/riser issue in February 2025.
Notable ongoing concerns include an open Class C violation from September 2024 regarding hot water availability in Apartment 6, as well as several open violations related to building safety and maintenance requirements, such as missing fire safety notices, defective doors, and encumbrances in public areas. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of heating system problems, with two heat/hot water complaints in late 2024 and early 2025 resulting in violations. September 2024 inspections revealed multiple violations requiring correction, including missing fire safety notices and maintenance issues in public areas.
The building has also experienced structural and infrastructure concerns, as evidenced by water leak complaints and issues with door/window frames. A boiler-related issue from 2019 resulted in an Environmental Control Board violation citing various mechanical and safety concerns. While the building had rodent activity documented in late 2012, a compliance inspection in 2013 resulted in a passing grade, suggesting this issue was addressed.
