87 Stuyvesant Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The three-story, six-unit building at 87 Stuyvesant Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Silvestre Pineda, has experienced several significant maintenance issues and violations over the past five years. Most recently, in August 2024, there was an unresolved complaint about the building's bell/buzzer/intercom system. In 2023, there was a brief heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building, though service was reportedly restored within a day.

The building has faced multiple electrical issues, including problems with outlets/switches and lighting in 2019 and 2022, resulting in violation citations. There were also multiple maintenance complaints in 2022 regarding electrical, water leak, and ceiling issues that could not be inspected by HPD due to access issues. The property has documented rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections in 2024 showing "Rat Activity" findings, though it achieved "Passed" status in May 2025.

The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance since 2021, with no confirmed infestations in the past five reporting periods. Violation records from 2019 show multiple safety concerns that were addressed, including various fire safety and egress issues, though one electrical violation from 2022 regarding exposed wiring at the building entrance appeared to generate ongoing concern. While many historical violations have been closed, the most recent building inspection in 2024 revealed one open violation regarding self-closing doors at the entrance to Apartment 2L.
