230 Highland Place, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 230 Highland Place in Cypress Hills, owned by Mark Neiman, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, most notably related to heating systems and water infrastructure. The building, constructed in 1905, has documented multiple heat and hot water complaints, with the most recent incidents occurring in January 2025 and November 2024, some of which resulted in violations being issued.

In late 2024, significant issues were documented in apartment 3R, including problems with ventilation, plaster surfaces, hot water supply, and a pest infestation involving mice and vermin, for which violations were issued and subsequently certified as corrected in early 2025. The building has also experienced various water-related issues, including slow leaks in multiple locations, with the most recent complaints filed in November 2024 and June 2024. The property has been subject to several pest-related incidents, with inspections in 2024 revealing issues that required correction, including reports of both pest infestations and unsanitary conditions.

Historical data from 2019-2025 shows consistent attention to rodent control, with rat activity detected in inspections during 2019, though records indicate successful compliance in subsequent years. The building has undergone various inspections for safety and compliance purposes, with some complaints related to electrical wiring and unauthorized work, though most inspections resulted in no violations being found. While there have been no documented bedbug infestations in recent years (2019-2025), the building's maintenance history shows persistent challenges with basic building systems and infrastructure, particularly regarding heating and water supply, suggesting ongoing attention to these fundamental building systems is necessary for maintaining resident comfort and safety.
