1494 St Marks Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The two-family house at 1494 St. Marks Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by Dana Sinclair, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past two years (2023-2025).

The most significant incident occurred in January 2023, when emergency complaints were filed regarding heat and hot water issues in one apartment, resulting in HPD violations. During the same month, multiple other concerns were reported, including problems with window frames, window panes (both categorized as emergencies), and appliances (specifically a refrigerator and electric/gas range), though inspections of these issues did not result in violations.

More recently, in July 2023, there was another emergency complaint regarding a window pane, which was closed in April 2024 without violations being issued. It's worth noting that while most of these complaints were resolved without violations, the cluster of maintenance issues in early 2023, particularly the heat and hot water problems, stands out as the most substantial incident in the building's recent history. The property, built in 2001, is three stories tall and contains two units, as per the current building classification.
