73 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-story, four-unit brownstone at 73 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by Sunny Lin, has experienced several notable events since 2020, with the most significant being a heat and hot water emergency in August 2022 that required intervention from both HPD and the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, though the issue appeared to be resolved shortly thereafter. The building had a rodent sighting reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in August 2019, with no documented resolution provided in the records.

A work without permit complaint was filed with the Department of Buildings in April 2024, but following an inspection on the same day, no violations were found. The property has been subjected to two bedbug reporting periods (2022-2023 and 2021-2022), with no confirmed infestations or eradication efforts documented in either report, suggesting the building has maintained a clean record with regard to these pests.

The building's heat/hot water issues in 2022 represent the most significant resident comfort concern on record, though there have been no reported recurring problems since. The combined documentation suggests the building has experienced typical urban maintenance challenges over recent years, with the property management appearing to address issues as they arise, particularly in relation to pest control and heating system problems.
