432 Atkins Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The two-family residence at 432 Atkins Avenue in East New York, owned by Miguel Walker, has a documented history of maintenance and safety concerns, particularly during the period from late 2019 to early 2021.

The building, constructed in 1920, has experienced multiple heat and hot water system failures, with emergency complaints filed through 311 service requests in January 2019, December 2020, and January 2021, though Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) inspectors were frequently unable to gain access to verify the reported issues. During late 2020, several additional concerns were recorded, including problems with paint/plaster, plumbing (bathtub/shower), and unsanitary conditions including mold and pest infestations, all of which remained inaccessible for inspection despite being reported through both HPD and Housing Maintenance Code channels.

More recent records from 2022 indicate some construction-related issues, with violations noted for failure to obey a stop work order and concerns about adjacent building protection, though these matters appear to have been resolved relatively quickly with inspections occurring in May and June of 2022. While there have been no documented complaints or violations in the past three years (2023-2025), the building's history suggests periodic maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and various unit-specific maintenance issues, with multiple instances of inspectors being unable to access units for verification of reported problems.
