The 4-story, 3-unit building at 82 7th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Prashanth Rayapudi, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, in late 2023 and early 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building, with several emergency service requests being filed through HPD. The building has also faced ongoing pest challenges, with the most recent unsanitary condition complaint regarding pests filed in January 2025, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

During 2023, there were complaints about garbage/recycling storage conditions, though no violations were ultimately issued. The building's facilities and safety systems have undergone several inspections and repairs, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations and Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints. In 2021, several violations were noted, including the need for window guard repairs in Apartment 3, issues with a fire escape air conditioning unit, and problems with the public hall entrance door.

The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance, with zero infestations reported in the last three annual filings between 2022-2024. While there were some construction-related concerns in 2020-2021 regarding a sidewalk shed and masonry issues, these violations were addressed and resolved. Recent inspection attempts under Local Law 188/17 Compliance in January 2023 were met with access issues, though no violations were noted during other inspection attempts.
