169 Stanhope Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
169 Stanhope Street is a 6-unit, 3-story tenement building in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Stanhope Ventures LLC. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, most notably involving heating systems and pest control. Between 2022 and 2025, there have been multiple complaints and violations regarding heat and hot water problems, including a significant cluster of complaints in December 2024, with some being classified as emergencies. The building has also faced ongoing rodent issues, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2023 and 2025, though recent rodent inspections in early 2025 indicate continued challenges in maintaining pest control.
In December 2024, several violations were recorded in Apartment 1L, including defective carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, as well as rodent infestation issues, though these were certified as corrected in early 2025. Historical maintenance issues include plumbing problems (2024) and safety concerns regarding carbon monoxide detectors (2024). The building has maintained an active bedbug monitoring record from 2019 to 2024, showing no reported infestations during this period. The property's violation history reveals various issues requiring attention, including problems with self-closing doors at the building entrance (2024 violation) and multiple heating system complaints.
Previous violations from 2022 highlighted concerns about fire retardant materials in the cellar ceiling, ceiling height measurements, and roof leaks affecting the third-story public hall. While many of these violations have been addressed and closed, the persistence of heating, pest control, and rodent-related issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's recent inspection history (2023-2025) indicates some improvements, with fewer complaints about heat and water issues in 2025 compared to previous years, though rodent activity remains a concern. The property has been responsive to some violations, as evidenced by certification dates showing timely corrections, particularly regarding the December 2024 violations.
