754 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238

754 Washington Avenue, a 4-story, 6-unit residential tenement building in Prospect Heights built in 1920, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years that warrant attention. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heat and hot water systems, with complaints filed in both October 2022 and June 2025 regarding outages that affected the entire building. While the 2022 complaint was marked closed due to lack of access for inspection, the 2025 complaint was classified as an immediate emergency.

The building currently has four open violations from 2021 to 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code regulations. Additionally, there are two active Department of Buildings violations issued in 2023 and 2024 for failure to file external low-pressure inspection reports. On a more positive note, recent inspections have shown the building to be rodent-free, with "Passed" results documented in June 2023, May 2024, and June 2025.

However, the recurring nature of heat/water issues and the open bedbug report violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The most recent documented ownership is under Raoul Labady, though this information may be subject to change as new records are filed. The building's age and classification as an "OLD LAW TENEMENT" suggest it is subject to specific New York City housing regulations that require proper maintenance and reporting of various building conditions, which appears to be only partially adhered to based on available records.
