700 East New York Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The 16-unit, 4-story building at 700 East New York Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Mordechai Piller and constructed in 1931, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant problems occurring in 2024. Notable concerns include plumbing issues with the bathtub/shower in September 2024, which resulted in violations being issued, and multiple door-related problems including violations for a door and door frame in October 2024.
Apartment 1B appears to have faced particular challenges, receiving multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations in October 2024, including problems with plaster surfaces, door hardware, bathroom fixtures, and an infestation of mice. The building's elevator system has a documented history of issues, with complaints in 2018 and 2022 regarding single device operation and various mechanical problems, though inspections found no violations in 2022 and violations were resolved in 2018. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections since 2014, with all inspections passing, indicating successful pest management.
Recent complaints in 2024 focused primarily on maintenance issues such as paint/plaster work needed for walls, cabinets, and doors, as well as plumbing and appliance concerns. A bedbug infestation was recorded in one unit in the latest reporting period (2025), though this seems to be the first incidence in several years of reporting, with previous filings showing no infestations between 2020-2024. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing attention to various repair needs, with multiple complaints being addressed and closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, though some violations from October 2024 remain open, including those related to painting requirements and the reported pest issue in Apartment 1B.
