63 Stewart Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-story, two-family house at 63 Stewart Street in Bushwick, owned by Konah Dolo, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges since its construction in 2007. The most pressing recent issues involve recurring heating and hot water problems in 2025, with violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) in April and January of this year.

Prior to these incidents, a cluster of maintenance issues was documented in late 2024, including violations related to a water leak, mold, and various appliance problems (refrigerator and electric range) - all of which resulted in violations requiring owner attention. The building has an established pattern of heating system challenges, as evidenced by multiple complaints in recent years, including three emergency heat/hot water complaints between 2022 and 2025. The property currently has several open violations from a December 2022 inspection, including issues with an electrical outlet cover, toilet flushing mechanism, kitchen cabinet doors, plaster surfaces, and hot water temperature regulation (exceeding 130 degrees).

Additional violations were documented in 2022-2023 related to bathroom and kitchen maintenance. Despite these issues, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2018, with the most recent passing inspection conducted in March 2025. While the property has undergone regular inspections and the owner has generally responded to violations (with some exceptions), the recurring nature of heating system problems and the cluster of maintenance issues from late 2024 suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and systems reliability.
