135 Autumn Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

135 Autumn Avenue is a two-family, two-story residential building located in the Cypress Hills neighborhood, built in 1905 and currently owned by Mosaraf Hossain. The building's maintenance history reveals several significant issues, particularly during the latter half of 2020, when multiple complaints were filed regarding heat and hot water problems, including an emergency complaint that required inspection on October 26, 2020.

These inspections revealed two open violations in apartment 1R related to scalding hot water temperatures exceeding 130 degrees and missing carbon monoxide detectors. The building also faced issues with its entry system, as evidenced by a general complaint about the bell/buzzer/intercom system in November 2020, which HPD was unable to inspect. Prior to this, in September 2019, multiple violations were documented regarding safety and compliance requirements, including missing or defective self-closing doors, and various signage requirements related to smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and gas leak procedures that needed to be posted in common areas.

The property has a history of complaints regarding potential illegal commercial use in residential zones, with three separate complaints filed between 2019-2020, though in one instance no violation was found upon inspection. It's worth noting that a rodent inspection conducted in March 2012 resulted in a passing grade, indicating no pest issues at that time. While many of the violations documented in 2019 were eventually corrected, the most recent open violations from 2020 regarding water temperature and safety equipment in apartment 1R suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, though the current status of these violations as of October 2023 is not directly available in the provided data.
