93 Sheffield Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The two-family residence at 93 Sheffield Avenue in East New York, owned by Hugo Hurtado, was constructed in 1915 and consists of two stories. The most significant cluster of reported issues occurred in April 2023, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding various building conditions.

These included problems with doors and windows (both frames and general door issues), plumbing concerns (affecting sinks/basins and toilets), flooring problems, mold-related unsanitary conditions, ventilation system concerns, and a fire escape safety issue. While most of these complaints were investigated and closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) in April 2023 without violations being issued (except for mold and toilet issues, where violations were noted), they did indicate a period of notable maintenance challenges for the property. Following these April 2023 complaints, there was a separate plumbing-related complaint filed with the Department of Buildings in May 2024 regarding defective/leaking/poorly maintained plumbing systems.

This complaint was inspected in August 2024, but the inspector determined that no violations were warranted at the time of inspection. The building's record shows a pattern of plumbing-related issues, along with various other maintenance concerns, though it's worth noting that most complaints were investigated and closed without violations being issued. This property, being over a century old, has experienced several maintenance challenges in recent years, particularly during 2023, but has generally seen prompt responses to reported issues, with most complaints being addressed within a reasonable timeframe.
