53 Montrose Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The four-story, six-unit residential building at 53 Montrose Avenue in Williamsburg, owned by Eden Ashourzadeh and constructed in 1920, has experienced a series of maintenance and safety issues over recent years, particularly in 2024. Most notably, in August 2024, multiple complaints were filed regarding paint/plaster issues on walls and ceilings, as well as flooring problems, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify these conditions.

There were also some successfully resolved complaints in the same period regarding mold and plumbing issues related to a sink. The building's history reveals recurring maintenance challenges, with a significant cluster of violations and complaints documented in May 2019, including electrical safety issues that resulted in multiple ECB violations totaling over $19,000 in penalties, though records indicate these were eventually resolved.

Earlier records from 2020 show pest-related complaints, and the building's bedbug reporting history from 2019-2023 shows no documented infestations. More recently, there have been no reports of bedbug issues between 2019 and the present, and while the building has had various maintenance complaints, there is no current evidence of major ongoing infestations or hazardous conditions. The property's violation history includes both environmental control board (ECB) violations and housing maintenance code violations, with inspections revealing issues such as defective fire escapes, rust that required repainting, and various structural and safety concerns, all of which were subsequently addressed according to violation closure records.
