73 Euclid Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The two-family house at 73 Euclid Avenue in Cypress Hills, built in 1901 and currently owned by Luis Vidal, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly in 2024 and 2025. Most concerning are multiple power outage incidents in June 2025, with four documented outages within a two-week period generating violations and emergency service requests.

The property has also faced recurring electrical problems, including a no-lighting situation in June 2025 and power outage emergencies earlier that month. In late 2024, the building had documented issues with mold, wall conditions requiring attention, and concerns about both carbon monoxide and smoke detector functionality, with violations issued during HPD inspections. The building has a history of illegal conversion complaints, with multiple reports from 2019 through 2025, though inspection access was denied in several attempts.

A minor door frame issue was reported in October 2024, and various plumbing concerns involving bathtubs, sinks, and appliance functions have been documented, with violations in some cases. While the building does not have any recent bedbug infestations reported between November 2023 and October 2024, the frequency of electrical problems and building code violations raises ongoing maintenance concerns. The most recent violation activity centers around electrical systems, with particular note of the August 2024 violations related to unsanitary conditions and safety systems.
