661 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The two-family house at 661 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Oren Sasson, has had some recent maintenance issues worth noting. In September 2023, there were two separate plumbing-related incidents involving water supply problems, one of which was classified as an emergency situation.

Both complaints were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and, while no violations were found, required official inspections and generated corresponding case numbers (24464774 and 24467693). These incidents represent the most recent and significant events on record, occurring within the same two-week timeframe.

Earlier in 2023, in June, there was a complaint filed with the Department of Buildings regarding a permit issue, though the inspector was unable to gain access during their second and final attempt to investigate the matter in July. This represents an administrative matter rather than a resident-impacting concern, and the complaint was subsequently closed with a disposition code indicating the inspection could not be completed. The building's documented history, spanning from its construction in 1901 through to these recent events, suggests that while the property is experiencing some recent plumbing-related challenges, these have been addressed through official channels and inspections without resulting in formal violations.
