69 Eldert Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-story, three-unit tenement building at 69 Eldert Street in Bushwick, owned by Sophia Crown and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heat and hot water, with the most recent emergency complaint in March 2023 being temporarily resolved but indicating potential ongoing concerns.

The building has also faced multiple unsanitary condition complaints regarding garbage/recycling storage between 2019-2020, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations. The property has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2019 that remain unresolved as of 2025, including requirements to file annual bedbug reports, provide gas leak procedures, maintain heating system access, and post carbon monoxide and smoke detector requirements.

These violations, though not necessarily indicating immediate dangers, suggest ongoing compliance issues. The building has maintained a passing record on rodent inspections from 2012 through 2025, indicating effective pest management. While the property has had various maintenance issues over the years, many complaints have been promptly addressed or investigated, though some systemic problems, particularly regarding heat and building code compliance, appear to persist.
