409 Howard Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233
409 Howard Avenue is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 1921, currently owned by Charlene Mclean. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues throughout 2024-2025, with multiple complaints about heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, including verified violations in March 2025 and repeated violations since July 2024.
The building is currently facing several open violations from a November 2024 inspection, including issues with inadequate heat supply, multiple deficiencies in carbon monoxide and smoke detecting devices, roof leaks, interior wall damage, and heating system access concerns. Additional problems noted during this period include a July 2024 violation related to electrical outlets. The building's maintenance history reveals more systemic issues beyond heating concerns.
There are active violations from 2023 and 2020 indicating the failure to file required boiler inspection reports, and a 2019 inspection noted multiple boiler-related problems that resulted in penalties. However, on a positive note, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations, with all previous reports (2017-2023) showing no affected units. While the property has a history of various maintenance issues, especially regarding heating systems, the regularity of heat-related complaints suggests this may be a persistent problem requiring ongoing attention.
