1662 Broadway, Brooklyn, NY 11207
The three-story, two-family residence at 1662 Broadway in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Joshua Brown, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years. Most significantly, between March and November 2019, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water problems affecting both the entire building and individual apartments, with several complaints being filed through both 311 and the Housing Maintenance Code system.
During this period, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) encountered difficulties gaining access to the building for inspections. Additionally, in late 2019, there were two reported cases of unsanitary conditions related to pests, though again, access issues prevented proper investigation. More recently, the building has accumulated active violations related to external low-pressure inspections, with six violations issued between April 2022 and September 2024 for failing to file required inspection reports covering 2018 through 2023.
These violations remain open as of the current date. However, it's worth noting that rodent inspections conducted in January 2018 and January 2019 both resulted in passing grades, suggesting successful pest management during those periods. The building's construction as a two-family house dates back to 1905, and despite the concerning pattern of heating and inspection compliance issues, the documented records show no serious safety violations or recent emergency conditions.
