The four-story, 38-unit tenement building at 471 Albany Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by James Mullings, has experienced several maintenance and inspection events since late 2023. Most notably, there have been multiple plumbing-related issues, including a recent unresolved sink problem from late 2024 and a water leak complaint from October 2023. The building underwent various inspections throughout 2024, with Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) conducting checks in response to multiple complaints, though no violations were found related to issues with windows, walls, cabinets, or pest control reported in January 2024.
A heat and hot water outage was reported and briefly addressed in December 2023. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene conducted a rodent inspection in mid-2024 which resulted in no violations, though previous inspections in 2022 had shown rat activity. In terms of building violations, several were recorded in 2023-2024, including issues with door frames and windows on the south side leading to the courtyard.
Historical records show ongoing maintenance challenges in unit 5B (from 2021), including electrical issues, door problems, and various other repairs that required attention. The building's bedbug reporting history indicates minimal infestations, with only two units affected between 2017-2020, though recent filings from 2020-2024 show zero infestations. The property has undergone regular rodent control inspections since 2016, with varying results, though the most recent inspection in 2024 passed with no violations, indicating improved pest management. The building's compliance history includes several resolved Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from 2018-2020 regarding construction safety and work continuation during a stop-work order.
