The two-family house at 1225 Herkimer Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Opal Mcfarlane, is a 2-story brick building constructed in 1915. The property has experienced several concerning issues over the past two years, with a particularly notable cluster of problems in March 2023. During this month alone, there were multiple reports of mold, water leaks, electrical lighting issues, and ceiling paint/plaster problems, with several of these incidents classified as emergency situations by the Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) department. The building appears to have a persistent problem with water-related issues, as evidenced by both heavy flow and slow leak complaints in 2022 and 2023, though not all inspections resulted in violations being issued. Additionally, there were earlier electrical lighting problems reported in December 2022, which resulted in violations. While some complaints were inspected and no violations were found, the frequency and nature of these issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. All reported complaints have been closed, but the data indicates a pattern of water, electrical, and mold-related concerns that merit attention.
