36 Prospect Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217

36 Prospect Place is a 4-unit, 4-story old law tenement building located in Park Slope, Brooklyn, owned by Jack Pliskin and constructed in 1883. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with the most recent concerns emerging in late 2023 through multiple 311 complaints regarding plumbing problems with the bathtub/shower and unsanitary pest conditions. Both complaints were filed on December 27, 2023, and could not be inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), remaining unresolved as of March 2024, though they were classified as non-emergency issues.

The building's electrical safety history is notable, with two violations in late 2018 and early 2019 for performing electrical work without proper permits, resulting in penalties totaling $1,650, though these violations were ultimately resolved. The property has undergone periodic rodent inspections, with mixed results between 2009 and 2021. While the most recent rodent inspections in 2021 showed compliance following an initial rat activity finding in July 2021, there was an earlier inspection in 2018 that passed.

The building has maintained a consistent record of no bedbug infestations or eradications since 2019 across all annual filings, indicating effective pest management in this regard. Historical data shows various maintenance activities typical of an older Brooklyn building, with some significant electrical and pest-related issues requiring attention. The property has also had multiple inspections and service requests over the years, with varying levels of access for city inspectors to verify and address reported conditions.
