230 St James Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The 8-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 230 St James Place in Clinton Hill, owned by Suzanne Hebron and constructed in 1905, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues as indicated by multiple emergency complaints filed in September 2024. Two identical complaints were recorded for the entire building, with one initially deemed a duplicate and the inspector finding no housing law violations in the other.

The building's history shows consistent attention to pest management, with annual bedbug reporting since 2019 showing no infestations in any units throughout the specified periods. Rodent inspections reveal a mixed record, with a pass in August 2017 following a July 2017 failure, and an April 2011 initial inspection also resulting in failure for unspecified reasons. The property's bedbug reporting history demonstrates proactive management, with no recorded infestations in any unit during the past five reporting periods from 2019 through 2024.

While the recent heat and hot water issues suggest maintenance challenges, the building's age and classification as a New Law Tenement are consistent with typical property management considerations in this age group. The most significant recent concerns center around the heating system, with two simultaneous complaints in late September 2024, though HPD's response indicates at least one inspection did not reveal housing law violations. The building's inspection history suggests varying maintenance challenges, particularly in rodent management, though recent records show improved compliance in this area.
