187 Mcguinness Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The five-story residential building at 187 McGuinness Boulevard in Greenpoint, owned by Maryam Ghermezian, has experienced significant persistent maintenance issues throughout 2023, with particular concerns about water-related problems. Between June and July 2023, there were multiple reports of water leaks, including incidents described as "heavy flow," "slow leak," and "damp spot," affecting various units including apartments 3, 4, and 4D.

These water-related issues led to subsequent violations in housing maintenance codes requiring repairs to plastered surfaces and ceilings. More recently, in July 2023, a mold complaint was filed, though no violations were issued after inspection. The building currently has several open housing maintenance code violations from July 2023, including requirements to repair defective plastered surfaces and paint in uniform color in apartments 3 and 4, address water leak issues in multiple units, and repair defective entrance doors.

Additionally, there is an open violation from April 2024 regarding the annual bedbug report filing requirement. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of water-related issues, particularly affecting ceilings in multiple apartments, and structural concerns such as ceiling plaster and door functionality. While there have been some historical inspections showing compliance, such as a passed rodent inspection in 2013 and a construction-related complaint from 2020 that found no violations at the time of inspection, the more recent maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with moisture control and basic maintenance requirements.
