1975 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11233

1975 Eastern Parkway is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, built in 1910 and currently owned by Gilberto Vargas. The building has experienced several safety-related issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of complaints occurring in early 2024, including concerns about a broken window guard, fire escape maintenance, and unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions.

All these complaints were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), and while no violations were issued, they resulted in multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints being classified as emergency and non-emergency situations. The building currently has four open Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with inspection dates ranging from 2021 to 2024, though there have been no documented bedbug-related complaints since 2020.

The property has a history of Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints regarding certificate of occupancy issues, with three separate complaints between May and July 2021, all resulting in inspectors being unable to gain access for verification. However, the building has maintained a clean record in recent rodent inspections, having passed inspections in 2017, 2018, and 2020. While the building's documented history shows recurring administrative compliance issues and occasional safety concerns, it is worth noting that most recent complaints have been resolved without violations being issued, and the property has generally met basic safety requirements as evidenced by the passed rodent inspections.
