854 Myrtle Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206

854 Myrtle Avenue is a 33-unit, 6-story residential building constructed in 2006, currently managed by 854 Myrtle Avenue, L.P. The property has experienced recurring issues with water damage and unsanitary conditions, particularly noting persistent mold problems, with two recent complaints in May 2025 resulting in HPD violations. Several maintenance problems have emerged in 2025, including multiple emergency service requests for plumbing issues, elevator service, and electrical problems.

Notable housing maintenance violations from 2024 involve significant issues in apartments 5F and 6E, including water leaks, mold, and pest infestations. The building has a documented record of elevator service challenges, with multiple complaints about single-device service and no alternate service between 2023 and 2025, resulting in violations and requiring Oath hearings. While the building has generally passed rodent inspections in recent years, there were some failures noted in 2022, and there have been multiple reports of unsanitary conditions, including problems with garbage storage and pest control.

The property management appears to have maintained some basic compliance, as evidenced by the absence of bedbug infestations in recent years, though there was one documented case in early 2019. A 2023-2024 inspection showed the building was operating without properly displaying energy efficiency scores, which remains an active violation. The variety of ongoing maintenance issues across different systems - including electrical, plumbing, and waste management - suggests challenges with building upkeep, despite the relatively recent construction date.
