316 East 93rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 2-story, 4-unit residential building at 316 East 93rd Street, owned by Meyer Kaufman, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed by tenants between March and May 2025. These problems appear to be systematic, as evidenced by the significant number of heat-related complaints and violations, including two emergency complaints in May 2025. The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, with the most recent violations including door/window issues, electrical problems, and plumbing concerns, all documented in May 2025.

Notably, an HPD inspection in 2024 revealed multiple violations in apartment 2R, including issues with doors, flooring, ceiling materials, and an infestation of roaches, though most of these violations were certified as corrected by December 2024. The property has a concerning history of over-occupancy, with violations recorded in 2018 regarding illegal conversion to 5 dwelling units, though this appears to have been resolved. More recently, there have been complaints about various building systems, including a gas utility referral in May 2025 and a boiler complaint that was inspected but found to have no violation.

While the building's bedbug reporting history from 2021 to 2024 indicates no infestations, there have been pest-related issues as noted in May 2025. The building's infrastructure appears to be aging, as evidenced by recurring heat/hot water complaints, roof leakage issues (noted in 2024), and various structural maintenance concerns. The property has consistently passed rodent inspections in 2017, 2019, and 2024, suggesting that while pest control issues arise from time to time, they are generally addressed promptly.
