275 Grant Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

This two-family residential building at 275 Grant Avenue in Cypress Hills, owned by Indi Singh, was constructed in 1899 and consists of two stories. The property experienced significant maintenance issues in late 2018, with multiple emergency complaints recorded through 311 services between November and December 2018, primarily related to water leaks with heavy flow conditions and electrical problems including inadequate lighting.

Following these complaints, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) conducted inspections in December 2018 and issued several Class A violations focused on issues in the first-floor (1STFL) apartment bathroom, including defective ceramic tiles, water leak problems at the ceiling, damaged plaster surfaces, an unsecured light fixture, and unsafe electrical wiring with exposed wires. While the electrical wiring violation was subsequently certified as corrected in January 2019, the other listed violations related to bathroom tiles, water leaks, plaster surfaces, and light fixture issues remain open as of October 2023.

Prior to these incidents, the building had undergone a rodent inspection in March 2012, which it passed successfully. The property's documented history shows a pattern of water-related maintenance issues in 2018, with three separate complaints recorded about heavy water flow leaks during that period. While the building's documented history is relatively limited and does include some resolved issues, the persistence of certain violations as of late 2023, particularly those relating to bathroom maintenance, is notable given the building's age and history.
