713 Bristol Street, Brooklyn, NY 11236

The 713 Bristol Street building in Brownsville, owned by Gladys Joseph, has experienced significant maintenance issues throughout 2024, particularly in the first half of the year. The 4-unit, 2-story New Law Tenement, constructed in 1930, has multiple open violations as of April 2024. Notably, there are ongoing concerns regarding heat and hot water supply, with the most recent HPD inspection on April 12, 2024, revealing inadequate hot water in Apartment 1F and locked access to the heating system.

The building has also faced several plumbing and electrical issues, with multiple emergency service requests between April 8-16, 2024, including problems with radiators, water supply, and wiring. January 2024 was particularly problematic, with multiple tenant complaints about cooking gas and heat issues affecting the entire building. While some of these complaints were inspected and resulted in violations, others were marked as duplicates.

The building currently has several open violations from the April 2024 inspection, including inadequate hot water supply, gas issues, missing smoke detectors, and various safety concerns such as improper locks and heating system access problems. The Department of Buildings conducted a gas utility inspection in February 2024 but failed to gain access for verification. The property's historical data shows a concentration of maintenance issues in early 2024, with multiple systems requiring attention and compliance with housing maintenance codes.
