2569 Pitkin Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, two-family house at 2569 Pitkin Avenue in East New York, owned by Colleen Mcentee, has experienced several notable maintenance issues throughout 2019, with the most pressing concerns centered around heating, hot water, and gas systems. Between June and August 2019, the building faced multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with some incidents occurring in multiple units simultaneously.

Four separate heat/hot water complaints between June 17 and July 1, 2019, were met with access issues for inspectors, and a subsequent emergency complaint on August 2 also went unresolved, though this pattern of inspector access problems is consistent across multiple incidents during this period. Additionally, there were recurring issues with cooking gas systems, with at least three complaints filed in June 2019, two of which resulted in violations when inspected. The building also reported concerns with electrical wiring and flooring conditions in June 2019, with at least one of these inspections resulting in violations.

A slow water leak was reported on June 17, 2019, which was classified as a non-emergency issue. All complaints were eventually closed, with some building-wide emergencies classified as "Emergency" under the Housing Maintenance Code, while others were marked as "Non-Emergency" or "General". While these incidents were primarily concentrated in mid-2019, they represent a period of significant maintenance challenges for the building, particularly concerning fundamental utility systems.
