69 South 3rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249

This three-story, four-unit building in Williamsburg, owned by Ana Prieto and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. In late 2018, the building faced multiple simultaneous emergencies, including problems with heavy water flow, slow water leaks, heating and hot water disruptions, cooking gas issues, and smoke detector concerns, though inspections were hampered by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's (HPD) inability to gain access to the affected units.

More recently, the building has been under scrutiny for failing to submit required annual bedbug reports, with violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and continuing into 2024, all classified as Class A violations. A positive note came in December 2022 when the building passed a rodent inspection, demonstrating compliance with that particular health and safety requirement.

The pattern of emergency service requests in 2018 and the ongoing bedbug reporting violations suggest recurring challenges with building maintenance and communication. While the building has had no reported complaints since the 2018 incidents, the failure to comply with bedbug reporting requirements over multiple years indicates a persistent oversight of housing maintenance regulations. The building's age and history as a "Heretofore Converted Class A" structure are also notable, though they do not directly impact current conditions.
