555 Metropolitan Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211
555 Metropolitan Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Williamsburg, built in 1930 and currently owned by Joseph Malench. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past few years, with multiple complaints filed between November 2021 and June 2024 regarding inadequate or no heat in non-residential areas.
Notably, there was an emergency heat and hot water complaint for the entire building filed in November 2021 through the Housing Maintenance Code system, though access for inspection could not be obtained. More recently, in mid-2024, there have been two complaints filed regarding smoking or vaping in smoke-free areas, both of which are being addressed by the NYC Health Department.
The building's maintenance record shows one Housing Maintenance Code violation from April 2021 related to the annual bedbug reporting requirement, though this violation appears to have been resolved as subsequent filings show no indications of bedbug infestations. The property has maintained a clean record in terms of actual bedbug infestations, with reports from 2023, 2022, and 2021 all indicating zero infested units, zero units requiring eradication, and zero instances of re-infestation. While the heating issues from 2021-2024 constitute the most significant maintenance concern in recent years, the absence of bedbug problems and the relatively prompt closure of most service requests suggest that other maintenance issues have been addressed appropriately.
