780 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-story, two-family house at 780 Nostrand Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by Riley & Peters Corp, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years. Most notably, there were emergency complaints of unsanitary mold conditions in July and August 2021, though Housing Preservation and Development inspectors were unable to gain access to investigate.

More recently, the building has accumulated multiple violations related to external low-pressure inspections, with records from 2018 through 2023 showing failure to file required documents - the most recent being issued in September 2024 and remaining active as of the current date. Between 2019 and 2021, there were also two stop work orders issued in July 2019, though these were subsequently dismissed after being fully rescinded in December 2021. The property has undergone several inspections regarding rodent activity, with mixed results: while an initial inspection in June 2023 found rat activity, more recent inspections in July 2023 and May 2024 resulted in passing grades.

Two training compliance complaints were filed in January 2022, with inspectors again unable to gain access. The building's permit history shows multiple approved permits from 2018 and 2021 for various work types, including equipment and alteration permits. The repeated issues with mold complaints, maintenance violations, and rodent activity inspections suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance, though some improvements are evidenced by recent passing inspections and the resolution of certain violations.
