570 Lefferts Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The 570 Lefferts Avenue building, located in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, is a 6-story, 48-unit Class A residential building constructed in 1938, currently owned by James Dimitriades. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in 2025, with multiple emergency complaints between January and April, including attempts by HPD to inspect affected apartments. Earlier in 2025, there were also problems with wall conditions (paint/plaster issues) and a confirmed mold violation that required correction.
The building has faced significant elevator-related challenges, with multiple complaints between 2020-2021 regarding single device operation and no alternate service, though inspections generally found no violations at the time. Recent investigations from 2024 revealed multiple violations in apartment 6G related to pests (mice and roaches), wall conditions, and peeling paint requirements, though these were ultimately certified as corrected by October 2024. The building has documented issues with rat activity, most recently in late 2023.
Of particular concern, there are active ECB violations from 2024-2025 regarding unauthorized work and obstructed exit pathways in apartment 3G, with associated penalties of $1,280 each. The property has demonstrated patterns of non-compliance with various maintenance codes, including several instances of failure to certify corrections of immediately hazardous violations between 2018-2025, though many such violations have ultimately been resolved or dismissed. While the building has had some pest management issues in the past, recent bedbug reports for 2022-2024 show no new infestations.
