187 7th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The five-story brownstone at 187 7th Avenue in Park Slope, owned by Nathan Green and constructed in 1920, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, particularly between late 2024 and early 2025. Notable incidents include emergency complaints about heavy water leaks and door problems filed in December 2024, though HPD was unable to complete inspections at that time. There was also a rodent sighting reported in April 2025, though this was followed by a passed inspection by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene later that month.

The building experienced heat and hot water issues in December 2022, which were reportedly resolved quickly according to tenant reports. Housing Maintenance Code violations were recorded in 2021 and 2022 related to annual bedbug reporting requirements, though these appear to have been remedied. The property's bedbug reporting history from 2020 to the present shows zero cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation, indicating effective pest management practices.

Additionally, the building has undergone routine rodent inspections, with the most recent occurring in April 2025 (passed) and previous interventions in 2017 showing bait application. An ECB violation from 2021 remains resolved but noted several maintenance issues including the need for cab mirrors, repair of car phone, updating contact information in the lobby, and concerns about an illegal vestibule. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues, the prompt responses and inspections by relevant agencies suggest ongoing management oversight.
