701 Logan Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-unit residential building at 701 Logan Street in East New York, owned by Michael Williams, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been a recurring pattern of inadequate heat and hot water supply, with multiple emergency complaints in 2024 alone, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

The building has also faced serious sanitation challenges, with multiple violations issued in January 2024 for pest infestations, mold presence, and water leakage issues, particularly affecting the first-floor apartment. More recent inspections have documented ongoing issues, including open violations for pests (roaches, mice, vermin), mold (bathroom ceiling), and water leak problems (kitchen ceiling) in Apartment 1. From a broader perspective, the property has a history of compliance challenges, including multiple active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations related to work without permits and failure to comply with commissioner's orders regarding conversion issues, with penalties totaling over $50,000.

These violations stem from inspection findings between 2020 and 2022 that relate to the building's maintenance and occupancy status, including concerns about illegal conversions and converted residence compliance. Furthermore, a 2022 ECB violation noted dangerous conditions at the rear yard garage structure. While the building passed rodent inspections in 2012 and 2022, the recent pattern of complaints and violations suggests persistent and unresolved maintenance challenges that may affect tenant quality of life.
