2736 Pitkin Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208
The three-story, 12-unit residential building at 2736 Pitkin Avenue in East New York, owned by Hong-ji Hu, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent months, most notably a recurring heat and hot water problem. Between June 1-3, 2025, there were multiple complaints about lack of heat and hot water, with some complaints remaining open despite HPD's attempts to verify the conditions.
The building, constructed in 1925, currently has an open cluster of Housing Maintenance Code Violations as of December 2024, primarily affecting apartment 5, including issues with water leaks in the kitchen and bathroom ceilings, missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, floor defects, and problems requiring repair and repainting of various surfaces. Recent months have also seen several maintenance complaints generated through 311, including broken window guards (May 2025) and paint/plaster issues (April 2025), as well as a lead dust complaint in common areas that remains unresolved as of May 2025.
The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections between September 2024 and April 2025, with recent inspections in April 2025 continuing to show rodent activity despite bait application. However, bedbug reports for the past three years (2022-2025) have consistently shown no infested units or re-infestation issues. The property has experienced multiple heat and hot water complaints throughout Spring 2025, indicating an ongoing maintenance challenge, though housing code violations from December 2024 suggest more systemic issues, particularly in apartment 5 where multiple violations relate to safety systems and water damage.
