10 Pleasant Place, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The two-family house at 10 Pleasant Place in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Joseph Natanov, was constructed in 1901 and stands two stories tall. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, with the most serious concerns occurring in 2023 when a full vacate order was issued due to substantial structural concerns, including an open wall, exposed elements, and deteriorating structural components. In May 2023, there was also a violation regarding a failure to maintain the property, though this was subsequently dismissed as part of a demolition and grading process.

The building has a documented history of heat and hot water problems, particularly in late 2018 when multiple complaints were filed about building-wide deficiencies in these essential services, and similar issues were reported in 2019. Additional concerns emerged in 2020, including serious plumbing issues with heavy water flow and electrical wiring problems, which were classified as emergency situations. The property has faced ongoing pest control challenges, with reports of both rodents in 2021 and mosquitoes in 2022, indicating persistent difficulties with vermin and insect management.

Multiple housing maintenance code complaints from 2020 suggest various systemic issues, including problems with garbage storage, wiring, plumbing, and unsanitary conditions. The Department of Buildings records show several inspections, including a 2023 inspection that revealed significant safety concerns requiring immediate attention, though some complaints filed in subsequent years resulted in "no violation warranted" findings during inspections. The most recent building-related incident on record was an inspection in May 2024 related to sweep compliance, which also resulted in no violations being found.
