2345 Pitkin Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

2345 Pitkin Avenue is a three-story, three-unit building in East New York, owned by Lino Morales and built in 1901. The property has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water systems, most recently documented in April 2024 when violations were issued for inadequate hot water service in the second-floor apartment and restricted access to the building's heating system in the basement.

These followed a similar heat and hot water emergency complaint in 2024, suggesting ongoing maintenance challenges in this critical building system. The building has also faced water-related issues, as evidenced by an August 2022 emergency water leak complaint.

A notable pattern of regulatory non-compliance is evident regarding bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive annual violations recorded between 2021 and 2024 for failure to file the necessary reports as per Housing Maintenance Code requirements. In terms of historical conditions, the building passed its initial rodent inspection in May 2012, though this was over a decade ago. The persistence of both water and heating system issues, along with the unaddressed bedbug reporting violations, indicates some challenges with maintaining basic housing standards, particularly in recent years.
