458 Wyona Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-unit residential building at 458 Wyona Street in East New York, owned by Bernard Gifford, has experienced consistent heating and hot water issues throughout 2023 and early 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed through HPD. The most recent cluster of complaints occurred in February 2025, including both building-wide and apartment-specific reports of inadequate heat/hot water, some of which were closed as duplicates or due to lack of access for inspection.

Similar heating system problems were reported throughout 2023, with some complaints resulting in HPD inspections and violations being issued. The building currently has two open Class A violations from 2023-2024 related to the failure to file required annual bedbug reports, though a previous Class C violation concerning a defective self-closing door in Apartment 3 from 2022 has been closed. The building's rodent inspection history shows consistent compliance, with passed inspections in December 2016 and twice in 2012.

While the property has experienced recurring heating system issues over multiple years, it has maintained good standing regarding rodent control. The frequency of heat/hot water complaints, particularly since 2023, suggests an ongoing maintenance challenge, though many complaints have been resolved or closed through HPD intervention. The bedbug report violations indicate a potential administrative oversight over the past several years, though this does not necessarily indicate an active infestation issue.
