1036 Winthrop Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The three-unit residential building at 1036 Winthrop Street in East Flatbush, managed by owner Zohar Siri, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent complaints occurring in 2023 regarding mailbox conditions and garbage/recycling storage, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. Between 2021 and 2022, there were recurring problems with heating systems, with complaints about lack of heat/hot water in apartments primarily occurring in late 2021. The building has also faced pest issues, with multiple complaints about roach infestations in apartments 2R and 3, as well as concerns about unsanitary conditions in garbage storage areas.

Door and window maintenance has been a recurring theme, with multiple complaints filed in 2021 and 2022, though inspections were often unable to gain access for verification. The property has had several violations documented in 2020-2021, including issues with electrical service in apartment 2R, broken plastered surfaces, and safety concerns regarding door locks and security features in apartment 3. A gas leak procedure notice requirement was also documented.

However, it's worth noting that recent bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 have consistently documented zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting effective pest management in this regard. An illegal hotel room complaint was filed in 2021 but was unsubstantiated based on department records. All documented violations and complaints have been closed, though some required multiple follow-ups before resolution. The building's age (constructed in 1930) and classification as a New Law Tenement are consistent with its historical context in the East Flatbush neighborhood.
