319 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The two-family brownstone at 319 8th Street in Park Slope, owned by Dorothy Deringer, has experienced significant gas-related issues during the summer of 2020, with multiple emergency complaints emerging between late May and July of that year. Seven separate complaints regarding cooking gas problems were filed through the 311 system, with two of these (on July 2nd and July 8th) resulting in official violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Specifically, violations were recorded for inadequate gas supply to kitchen ranges in both basement apartment 1 and second-story apartment 2, though the Department of Buildings conducted an inspection on July 20, 2020 that did not warrant any violations at that time. The building has passed rodent inspections as of November 2019, suggesting no ongoing pest issues at that time.

The property, constructed in 1899, features two stories and two residential units, consistent with its classification as a two-family house. While the gas-related incidents in 2020 represented the building's most significant maintenance concerns in recent years, there have been no recorded similar issues in the years since, suggesting that these problems may have been resolved. The HPD violations from July 2020 are currently listed as "Open" in the system, though their status should be verified through official channels for current accuracy.
