1924 Prospect Place, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The three-unit, three-story building at 1924 Prospect Place in Brownsville, owned by Dameon John, was constructed in 1929 as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant concerns being related to heat and hot water systems. In 2019 alone, there were multiple heat/hot water complaints between October and December, some of which were classified as emergencies and involved multiple tenant reports.

The building has also faced various plumbing and sanitary issues, with multiple complaints about sewage problems and toilet facilities in April 2019. More recent concerns include several open violations from 2022-2024, particularly regarding bedbug report filings, defective self-closing doors at building entrances, and issues with the roof's coping stones and rubber coating. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unresolved or recurring issues, particularly during 2019 when multiple complaints were filed but access for inspections was often denied.

Between 2014 and 2019, there was noticeable rodent activity, with multiple inspections resulting in failed results and the need for bait application in 2014. While some maintenance code violations have been closed, including issues with ceilings in the public hall, many current violations remain open as of 2024. The property has also faced some infrastructure challenges, including an electrical wiring complaint in December 2021 that was investigated but found to have no violations at the time of inspection. The combination of ongoing violations, particularly regarding bedbug reporting requirements, and the historical pattern of maintenance issues suggests a building with persistent operational challenges, though there have been periods of passing inspections and addressing some complaints.
