56 Marcy Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211

56 Marcy Avenue is a three-story, two-family residential building in Williamsburg, built in 2017 and currently owned by Paul Henry. The property experienced several significant events during its early years of occupancy. In early 2019, there were three construction-related complaints, including illegal after-hours work, with one resulting in a violation being served.

Most notably, two environmental violations were issued in January and May 2019 regarding occupancy without a valid certificate of occupancy, which carried penalties totaling $3,155. A related violation of failing to properly certify corrections was resolved in July 2019. The building's permit history shows that two permits were issued in late 2018/early 2019 under job number 321108225 for new building and plumbing work.

More recent issues include a cooking gas-related complaint in August 2023, which was responded to and resolved by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) within a few days. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding pest problems, with no bedbug infestations reported in any of the annual filings from 2021 through 2024. The property's current status shows no outstanding violations or complaints filed with the Department of Buildings (DOB), indicating improved compliance with regulatory requirements since the initial occupancy issues in 2019.
