260 12th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The 4-story, 8-unit residential building at 260 12th Street in South Slope, owned by Tony Dipiazza, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years, particularly affecting unit 3L. The property, built in 1931, has documented violations ranging from 2018 through 2023, with the most recent issues emerging in early 2023 involving safety (fire escape), heat/hot water, and sanitation concerns.

Recent inspections in 2023 led to several violations being issued, including requirements for proper garbage disposal, broken lock repairs, and safety-related signage maintenance. Notably, unit 3L had multiple violations documented in March 2023 regarding water leakage, plumbing, and interior maintenance issues, though many of these have been certified as corrected by December 2024. The building's history shows recurring concerns with garbage and recycling storage cleanliness, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints and violations between 2018 and 2023.

While there have been occasional issues with heat and hot water systems (notably in 2019), these were generally resolved promptly. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections with the latest passing result in April 2023 and has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations in recent years, with all previous incidents reported as successfully eradicated. Inspection records from 2023-2024 indicate active management response to violations, including requirements for water leak repairs, bathroom maintenance, and handling of construction materials in common areas.
