450 Amboy Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The three-story, two-family house at 450 Amboy Street in Brownsville, built in 2006 and owned by Khosrow Hakimian, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years. Most recently, in early 2025, the property faced multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests, though inspection attempts by HPD were unsuccessful due to lack of access.

The building has a documented history of various problems, including emergency-level issues in 2021 involving a malfunctioning smoke detector, mold in the bathroom of Apartment 2, and an inoperable door condition. This pattern of maintenance challenges continued throughout 2019-2021, with documented pest infestations (including mice and roaches) in Apartment B, appliance issues with refrigerators and ranges, as well as safety concerns such as broken carbon monoxide detectors and problematic bathroom fixtures. The building's violation history shows several open violations from the 2021 inspection, including issues with mold, appliance maintenance, and safety equipment.

While some prior violations from 2019 have been marked as closed, the persistent pattern of maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep. The property has not reported any bedbug infestation during the most recent reporting period (2019-2020), which may indicate improved conditions, though recent pest complaints suggest this situation may require continued monitoring. The combination of recent pest complaints and unresolved violations from 2021, along with the building's history of appliance and safety issues, forms a concerning picture of the property's maintenance record as of 2025.
