433 Van Siclen Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
433 Van Siclen Avenue is a 4-story, 19-unit residential building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Marc Halpert. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints documented between 2018 and 2025, including a cluster of heating problems in late 2023 that were reported as affecting the entire building. Recent rodent activity has also been a significant concern, with inspections in 2025 showing ongoing compliance failures despite bait applications earlier in the year.
The property has faced several infrastructure challenges, evident from multiple violations and complaints regarding water leaks, including heavy flow and slow leaks documented in 2018-2019, and more recent concerns about possible water damage. The building's maintenance history shows persistent maintenance issues, including multiple bedbug reports indicating compliance failures, though recent filings (2021-2023) show no confirmed infestations. Notable violations include a 2024 finding of water damage and missing fire-stopping material in the ceiling areas, and an active violation from 2023 for failure to file external low pressure inspection documentation.
The property has undergone semi-annual homeless shelter inspections between 2018-2025, with several violations related to construction, electrical, and plumbing systems, though most were resolved. The building has a documented history of both emergency and non-emergency complaints, with varying degrees of HPD inspection access and resolution outcomes. A 2024 inspection revealed excessive storage and plumbing issues in the basement area, including concerns about an oil tank room and electrical systems, while a 2022 inspection noted significant roof and cellar water leakage concerns.
