36 Plaza St East, Brooklyn, NY 11238
36 Plaza Street East is a 12-story, 84-unit residential building constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Henry Beltran. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues throughout recent years, with particularly notable problems recurring since 2022. The most frequent complaints involve heating and hot water failures affecting the entire building, with five documented incidents between 2022 and 2025, including two emergencies in January 2025 and December 2024. Additionally, there have been multiple reports of unsanitary conditions, including mold and pest infestations.
In late 2024 through early 2025, the building faced issues with water leaks and mold, though inspections found some of these not to violate housing laws. The building's systems have required ongoing attention, with documented elevator device violations and facade maintenance concerns, including multiple elevator-related complaints between 2019 and 2025 and a 2020 violation regarding work not conforming to approved construction documents. Recent inspections have shown some improvement in rodent control, with the most recent inspections in 2025 passing, though there were documented rat activity reports as recently as 2023. The building's management has been required to submit various reports, including annual bedbug reports, with the most recent filings in 2024 showing no infested units.
Several housing maintenance code violations have been issued, including a 2024 violation for mold in Apartment 5F. The property has also faced issues with building code compliance, including failure to submit required facade inspection reports, though many violations have been resolved or dismissed. While some recent 311 complaints have been promptly addressed, the pattern of service requests suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's history shows a mix of addressed violations and persistent maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems and water quality.
