571 Glenmore Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The two-family house at 571 Glenmore Avenue in East New York, owned by Yaron Malka, is a 2-story structure built in 1899. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, with the most pressing concerns occurring in the latter half of 2023 and into 2024.

Between October 2023 and February 2024, there were multiple unresolved complaints concerning unsanitary conditions, including reports of pests and mold, with some violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). Specifically, there were three separate complaints about pest issues in October 2023, and two complaints about mold, all of which resulted in violations. Additionally, there were two incidents of heat and hot water complaints during this period, including an emergency complaint in December 2023, where HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the conditions.

The building also experienced a significant water leak incident in October 2023, categorized as heavy flow, which was inspected by HPD. Looking back further, there was a power outage incident in August 2021 that required HPD inspection, though no violations were issued in that case. While some of the 2023-2024 complaints resulted in no violations being found (such as the October 2023 heat complaint), the persistence and pattern of these issues over time, particularly regarding unsanitary conditions, indicate ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
