The 72 Downing Street property in Clinton Hill, owned by Gamal Hasan, is a 3-story, 4-unit building constructed in 1871 that has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, there is an active violation related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports in 2023 and 2024, and multiple violations regarding external low-pressure inspection failures from 2018 through 2024, indicating potential maintenance oversight. The building has a documented history of rodent-related problems, with multiple complaints and inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene between 2022 and 2024. These inspections revealed violations requiring follow-up inspections, though some later compliance inspections resulted in passing grades. The property has also experienced recurring issues with being classified as "Vacant, Open and Unguarded" in 2022 and 2023, though inspections did not warrant violations at those times.
The building's inspection history shows a pattern of missed regulatory deadlines and required filings, particularly concerning bedbug reporting and low-pressure system inspections. While some rodent-related incidents were resolved through compliance inspections, the frequency of these complaints and the resulting violations suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and pest control. The most recent open violations as of April 2025 primarily relate to inspection filing failures rather than immediate health or safety concerns. The building's age and historical character as a converted Class B property remain notable, though these factors do not directly relate to current compliance issues.
