575 3rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

575 3rd Street is a 6-story, 36-unit New Law Tenement building located in Park Slope, built in 1920 and currently owned by Jair Gutierrez. The building has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues throughout early 2025, with multiple complaints from January to February 2025, including both apartment-specific and building-wide problems, some of which resulted in HPD violations. These heating system failures appear to be a recurring issue, with similar complaints documented in late 2024.

The building underwent significant elevator-related challenges, particularly in 2023, with complaints about single device service without alternate options, though these issues were eventually addressed. A concerning pattern emerged in late 2023 with building shaking and structural stability concerns, resulting in a partial stop work order. The property has some serious outstanding issues, including active Environmental Control Board violations from December 2023 regarding unauthorized solar panel installation and associated roof damage, with penalties totaling $5,000.

Housing Maintenance Code violations from early 2024 document various issues in apartment 6E, including problems with plaster surfaces, paint conditions, and roof leaks affecting multiple areas. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various code requirements, with violations being addressed and certified as corrected, including issues with building entrance security systems. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in recent years, and passed a rodent inspection in early 2025.
