2097 Dean Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 4-unit, 2-story 1910 New Law tenement building at 2097 Dean Street in Crown Heights, currently owned by Arasun 2097 Dean LLC, has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2024, particularly during the summer months. Between July and August 2024, there were multiple documented complaints and maintenance requests related to water leaks (including slow leaks and damp spots), unsanitary conditions (including mold and pest issues), and problems with paint and plaster on walls.

These issues led to several Housing Maintenance Code complaints, though most were marked as "closed" with no violations issued after inspection by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), except for two specific violations issued on August 14, 2024, concerning water leak and plaster issues in Apartment 1F that were certified for correction on August 27, 2024. The building's maintenance history shows some positive aspects, with consistent annual bedbug reporting from 2020 through 2024 showing zero infested units, indicating effective pest management.

While the property has experienced various maintenance challenges, particularly in 2024, the majority of complaints have been addressed through HPD inspections, even if no violations were ultimately cited. The building's violation history includes an Administrative Code violation from February 2022 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been resolved as subsequent filings show no infestations. The pattern of maintenance requests in 2024 suggests ongoing issues with water-related problems and interior maintenance, though most violations have been formally resolved through the HPD process.
