773 Monroe Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The two-family residence at 773 Monroe Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Hosna Ara, has recorded multiple concerning maintenance issues in recent years, with a particular cluster of documented problems emerging in June 2025. During this period, the building experienced multiple non-emergency complaints, including issues with water supply, plumbing, slow water leaks, electric/gas range appliances, flooring, and both pest infestations and mold, all of which were subject to attempted inspections by HPD that could not be completed.

Earlier complaints from April 2022 indicated similar maintenance challenges, including heavy water flow leaks affecting ceilings and problems with the electric/gas range, though these particular issues were verified as corrected before the complaints were closed. The building's history also includes a complaint about illegal conversion filed in April 2022, which was inspected and closed in May 2022.

The persistence of maintenance issues, particularly the recent cluster of complaints in June 2025, suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep. While some previous issues from 2022 were resolved through HPD intervention, the inability to complete inspections for the recent complaints raises concerns about the current state of maintenance responses. The building classification as a two-family house, constructed in 1899, is relatively typical for the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, though the high number of recent complaints across various categories merits attention.
