27 Cox Place, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 27 Cox Place in Cypress Hills, owned by Maria Kerastos, has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past two years. Most notably, there have been three separate heat/hot water complaints in November 2024 alone, all categorized as emergencies under the Housing Maintenance Code, with one incident in November 2023 also requiring HPD inspection.

While HPD investigated these complaints, the conditions were either not found to violate housing laws or access to the affected apartments could not be obtained for inspection purposes. These recurring heating problems may impact resident comfort and safety, though they have been addressed on each occasion according to the complaint resolutions. The building's maintenance record shows compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in any of the annual filings from 2020 through 2024.

A 2021 violation notice was issued regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been resolved as subsequent annual reports were duly filed with zero infested units reported each year. The building, constructed in 2016, has maintained its "Class A" designation and continues to adhere to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent filing period (2024) showing no infestation cases. While the heating system issues are concerning, the absence of any other significant violations or complaints in recent years suggests generally responsible property management in other areas.
