125 Greenpoint Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222
The four-story, 32-unit old law tenement building at 125 Greenpoint Avenue in Brooklyn, built in 1930 and currently owned by Malke Spitzer, has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past two years, with multiple heat and hot water complaints filed between October 2023 and December 2024, most recently in December 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023-2024 indicate several ongoing maintenance concerns, including an open violation from November 2023 related to roof leakage over the fourth-story public hall, as well as issues with fire-retardant material and ceiling maintenance in the same area.
The building's infrastructure history shows boiler-related problems, with multiple Department of Buildings complaints between 2019 and 2021 regarding defects and fume issues, though these were mostly resolved. Recent bedbug reports from 2021 through July 2025 show zero documented infestations, and rodent inspections between 2015 and 2019 indicate several instances of rat activity in 2017, though subsequent inspections passed compliance.
The building has maintained up-to-date bedbug reporting compliance as demonstrated in the 2025 filing, showing proper management of this particular maintenance requirement. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, recent records indicate fewer violations and complaints compared to earlier years, though the recurring heating system problems remain a significant concern for current residents.
