466 Prospect Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The 4-unit, 4-story tenement at 466 Prospect Place in Crown Heights, built in 1931, has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in June 2025, there were multiple complaints involving no lighting, mold, and ceiling paint issues, with HPD issuing violations for the lighting problem while inspections for the mold and ceiling issues could not be completed.

The building's history shows ongoing pest and sanitation concerns, including open rodent activity as recently as June 2025, with previous similar findings in 2023 and 2024. There are multiple open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023-2024 related to building safety and maintenance requirements, including missing required notices about carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detector requirements, and annual bedbug reporting obligations.

Past complaints also indicate issues with heat/hot water and plumbing problems in 2022, though many of these inspections were unable to complete due to lack of access. Recent complaints from 2024-2025 include concerns about illegal commercial use and potentially unauthorized hotel rooms in the residential building, with the latter investigation finding no violations at the time of inspection. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of unresolved or recurring issues, particularly regarding basic systems and pest control, with multiple violations and service requests requiring follow-up inspections or interventions that could not be completed due to access issues.
