1179 Sutter Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, two-family house at 1179 Sutter Avenue in East New York, owned by Stephanie Huq and built in 2007, has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in recent months. Between December 2023 and February 2024, multiple complaints were filed and subsequently closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) regarding unsanitary conditions, including reports of pests and mold, as well as plumbing issues related to toilets.

There were also reports of water leaks and door problems during this period, though inspections found no violations in any of these cases. The building has a history of violations requiring attention to safety systems, including a 2020 citation in Apartment 2 for defective carbon monoxide detectors, which remains open as of the latest available data, along with an infestation issue involving roaches.

Earlier in 2023, a violation was recorded in Apartment 1 regarding defective self-closing doors, though this was subsequently closed. While the building has demonstrated good maintenance practices in terms of pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years and successful rodent inspections in 2012 and 2022, the recent pattern of multiple complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. However, it's worth noting that all recent complaints have been closed without violations being issued, indicating that the city inspections did not find sufficient grounds for enforcement action.
