240 Montrose Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206
240 Montrose Avenue is a 4-story, 7-unit residential building constructed in 1920, currently owned by 240 Montrose Ave LLC. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with three emergency complaints in late 2022, one in early 2023, and another in late 2024, though some were resolved through HPD inspections.
The building underwent several maintenance work orders in 2022, including repairs to walls, flooring, and doors, with violations issued for requiring improvements to smoke detector and carbon monoxide requirements, as well as hot water issues in 2024's December inspection. A significant event occurred in 2021 when the building suffered fire damage, leading to multiple violations regarding structural repairs, though these were ultimately dismissed once confirmed repairs were completed in 2022. More recent concerns include potential unauthorized modifications, with the Department of Buildings issuing a violation in 2024 regarding unauthorized alterations to create a loft in apartment 8, and an active violation from September 2024 related to failure to file the 2023 External Low-Pressure Inspection.
Earlier complaints from 2022-2023 included issues with self-closing doors and general maintenance. Notably, the building has shown consistent compliance in pest control, with zero bedbug infestations reported in the last five annual reporting periods from 2019 to 2024. The property has maintained reasonable responsiveness to violations, with multiple citations being resolved and proper notifications being posted in accordance with HPD requirements, though as of the latest inspection in December 2024, one Class C violation regarding hot water service in apartment 4R remains open.
