258 Hemlock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The two-family house at 258 Hemlock Street in Cypress Hills, owned by Judy Mcmillan, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years, particularly regarding heating and electrical systems. Most recently, in late 2023, there were complaints about an electric/gas range (resolved), a power outage (investigation access denied), and heat/hot water issues (investigation access denied). Between 2020 and 2021, the building faced multiple heat and hot water complaints, with inspections showing varying results; some issues were resolved while others had access problems, though no violations were generally issued.

The property has also encountered electrical problems, with a power outage reported and addressed in 2023. The building underwent significant maintenance issues in 2021, particularly affecting the second-floor apartment (Apartment 2), which had documented problems including mice infestation (open violation), mold (open and closed violations), a broken kitchen window pane (closed violation), and a bathroom wall requiring repairs. Several violations from 2021 remain open, including concerns about door functionality, unauthorized alterations to suspended acoustic ceilings in multiple areas, and a need to post heating system access information in the public hall.

A 2020 violation regarding a locked gate in the building yard also remains open. The property had two complaints in 2021 and 2022 regarding illegal conversion and commercial use, though inspections did not result in confirmed violations. The building's history includes one passed rodent inspection from 2012, indicating some improvement on that front. With records showing persistent heating system issues, electrical problems, and various maintenance violations, the building's maintenance history reveals ongoing challenges with infrastructure systems and building maintenance compliance.
