207 Legion Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The two-story, three-unit building at 207 Legion Street in Brownsville, owned by Jenadiah Maynor-pilgrim, has experienced recurring heating issues in early 2025, with three separate complaints about heat and hot water problems between January and February, including one affecting the entire building. These recent incidents follow a pattern of heating system concerns, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints requiring HPD intervention.

The building is also currently cited for failing to file annual bedbug reports in 2022, 2023, and 2024, with these violations remaining open as of April 2024. In July 2018, the building faced several maintenance issues including problems with plumbing (bathtub/shower), electrical outlets/switches, and water leaks, though most of these complaints were resolved without violations being issued. The building has multiple open violations related to safety and notification requirements established in 2018, including the need to post gas leak procedures, carbon monoxide detector requirements, smoke detector requirements, and proper signage regarding housing information and building registration.

There was also an illegal conversion complaint in July 2018, although the inspector was unable to gain access to the property during the investigation. While some maintenance issues from 2018 were resolved, including work on steam pipes/riser and various apartment concerns, the persistence of heating problems and open violation regarding bedbug reporting indicates ongoing compliance challenges. The building was constructed in 1930 and has transitioned to a converted Class A building designation.
