121 East 95th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

121 East 95th Street is a 2-story, 4-unit residential building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Yvette Mcfarlane. The property, which falls under the New Law Tenement classification, has experienced multiple maintenance issues throughout 2024, with the most recent inspection conducted by HPD on October 13, 2024 revealing several significant violations. These open violations include safety concerns such as missing carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors, as well as an infestation problem involving rats in the apartment.

The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with plumbing and sanitary conditions, particularly in July and August 2024, when multiple complaints were filed regarding water leaks (including heavy flow and slow leaks), plumbing problems in sinks and bathtubs, and pest infestations. More recent incidents include an electrical lighting issue reported in September 2024, though HPD's inspection found no housing law violations. The October 2024 inspection brought to light several critical violations affecting Apartment 1F, including problems with the intercom system, defective faucets, drainage issues in both kitchen and bathroom fixtures, and the need for repair or replacement of self-closing doors.

The building also has an outstanding violation regarding access to the heating system's boiler room, which was found to be locked. While some earlier complaints were resolved without violations being issued, the cumulative effect of these ongoing maintenance issues suggests persistent building system and maintenance challenges. The property has had repeated complaints about various systems requiring attention, including multiple instances of plumbing problems, unsanitary conditions, and pest control needs throughout 2024.
