205 Troy Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11213

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 205 Troy Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by Jude Bonney and constructed in 2006, has experienced consistent heat and hot water issues over the years, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in April 2023. During this period, four separate 311 complaints were filed between April 5 and April 17, 2023, with HPD unable to gain access to apartments for inspection in three of the cases.

A similar pattern was observed in earlier complaints, including incidents in 2018 and 2019, though one 2019 complaint was resolved when a tenant reported restoration of services. Currently, the building has four open Housing Maintenance Code violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 to 2024. More recently, in October 2023, two significant Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations were issued against the property.

These violations, still active as of now, relate to occupancy issues concerning off-street parking and an unauthorized curb cut, with associated penalties of $1,250 each and remaining balances of $630. The building's parking situation appears to be a continuing concern, with the violation notice showing two cars parked in front of the building despite records indicating no off-street parking was allowed under the Certificate of Occupancy. These recent violations, along with the historical pattern of heating system issues, suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges at the property.
