1582 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 12-unit, 4-story tenement building at 1582 Eastern Parkway in Brownsville, owned by Peter Murray, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past year. Most notably, there have been two heat/hot water emergencies in recent months (January 2025 and December 2024), with the latest affecting the entire building.

The property has also faced significant water-related challenges, with multiple emergency complaints about heavy water leaks between June and September 2024. These water issues appear to primarily affect Apartment 2A, which has several outstanding violations including problems with plastered surfaces, carbon monoxide detecting devices, and multiple water leakage issues documented in February and September 2024. The building's infrastructure has shown some concerning patterns, with a boiler issue reported in January 2025 (though inspection access was denied).

The property has had periodic pest management challenges, as evidenced by a bedbug incident reported in May 2025, though this was limited to one unit and had been eradicated. Historical records show a pattern of rodent activity between 2018 and 2020, with multiple bait applications in response to inspections indicating rat activity. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services, particularly regarding water management and heating systems, though many complaints have been closed without violations being issued, indicating that while these issues are persistent, they may not always constitute official regulatory violations.
