947 Thomas S Boyland St, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The three-story, three-unit building at 947 Thomas S Boyland St in Brownsville, owned by Jason Lee, has experienced recurring maintenance issues since its construction in 2007. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints, with the most recent incidents in January 2024 and November 2023, the latter resulting in violations being issued. The building is currently facing several open violations as of April 2025, including issues with water heaters, mold in the bathroom, gas supply to the kitchen range, and water leaks affecting both the bathroom and hallway ceilings in the first-floor apartment (1STFLO).

Recent inspections from March 2025 also noted concerns with various systems and components, including ventilation, doors, flooring, and electrical outlets. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of infrastructure challenges, particularly affecting the first-floor apartment, which has documented issues with plumbing, walls, and cabinets. Additional violations from November 2023 include problems with plaster surfaces and paint consistency, as well as missing required postings related to housing information.

While there have been earlier complaints regarding appliances and safety features like the fire escape, many of these issues have been addressed. A rodent inspection in 2017 passed, and the building has maintained its Class A designation throughout its history. Despite the numerous service requests and violations, many have been closed following inspections, though several remain open as of the latest available data in 2025.
