728 Madison Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

728 Madison Street is a 4-story, 4-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 2013 and currently owned by Ismene Speliotis. The building has experienced persistent heating and hot water issues, with multiple documented complaints between 2023 and 2025, including several emergency situations where the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access for inspection. Most recently, in February 2025, another heat/hot water complaint was filed and closed without resolution.

The building has also accumulated several open violations since December 2024, including issues with the heating system access and inadequate heat supply in both common areas and individual apartments. These violations include problems with plaster repair requirements and paint conditions in public areas. While there have been some water-related issues, such as a slow leak complaint in April 2023, these were addressed within a few days.

The building's maintenance record shows generally good pest control management, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past five years. Rodent inspections have consistently passed between 2018 and 2024, with normal bait application procedures noted in 2014. The property management has generally responded to code violations and service requests, though many heating system issues remain unresolved as of the latest inspection records. The building's complaints history suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining consistent heating and hot water supply, which appears to be the most significant issue affecting residents' comfort in recent years.
