175 Wyckoff Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237

175 Wyckoff Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit building constructed in 1931, currently owned by William Zhang. The property has experienced recurring water-related issues, particularly evident in 2021 when multiple heavy flow water leak complaints were filed and inspected, resulting in some violations. The building has also faced several other maintenance challenges, including mold issues (March 2021), safety concerns regarding smoke detectors (June 2021), and various plumbing and plaster problems.

In 2018, significant concerns were raised about unauthorized modifications, with violations issued regarding illegal conversions in the cellar, including the creation of unauthorized rooms and bathroom facilities. This led to multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations for failing to comply with correction orders, though these were later resolved. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to regulatory requirements, with annual bedbug reports filed showing no infestations from 2021-2025, though recent rodent activity has been documented in multiple inspections between 2022-2025, indicating a persistent pest management challenge.

Recent inspections in 2023 revealed compliance with Local Law 188/17 requirements, though there were previous violations for failing to file external low-pressure inspections in 2019-2020, which were subsequently dismissed. The building has experienced intermittent heat and hot water issues, as documented in 2020 complaints, and various apartment-specific violations have been addressed over the years, including door and window repairs, safety system updates, and plumbing fixes. The property shows a pattern of addressing violations and maintaining regulatory compliance, though some recurring issues, particularly related to water, pest management, and periodic heating systems, have persisted over time.
