592 Quincy Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

592 Quincy Street is a 3-story, 6-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by Impacct Preservation LLC. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024, with multiple complaints filed between March and November 2024, including several emergency complaints for the entire building. These complaints indicate ongoing challenges with the building's heating system, which was cited in a Department of Buildings complaint in March 2024 as defective and not starting automatically to supply heat and hot water, resulting in an active Environmental Control Board violation with a penalty of $625.

The apartment unit 3R has been documented with several maintenance issues, including problems with the kitchen waste line, roof leaks, bathtub caulking, and inadequate hot water supply, though these violations were certified as corrected between April and August 2024. Additionally, there are concerning patterns of rat activity documented through rodent inspections, with initial inspections showing rat activity in December 2023 and July 2024, though the most recent inspection in July 2025 passed. The building's safety systems have also required attention, with violations noted in late 2023 for defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 3L, which were certified as corrected in February 2024.

Other maintenance issues have included a defective building entrance door and various plumbing problems in apartment 3R. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record over the past several years, with no reported infestations from 2019 through 2024. While there have been multiple violations and complaints requiring attention, the property management has generally followed through on correcting these issues, as evidenced by the closure of most violations.
