458 Rutland Road, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The two-family house at 458 Rutland Road in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Theresa Imazu, is a 2-story building constructed in 1930. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past few years, with multiple complaints filed between 2022 and 2023.

Most recently, there were two emergency heat/hot water complaints in November 2023 alone, one for the entire building and another for a specific apartment. These complaints followed a pattern of heating problems, including an incident in November 2022 where inspectors could not gain access to investigate. While the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) conducted several inspections in response to these complaints, they often found no violations or were unable to access the apartments for proper evaluation.

The building's maintenance history shows some attention to pest control matters, with bedbug inspections conducted in 2020 and 2021, both reporting no infested units, and a successful rodent inspection in December 2018. The property's age and recurring heat issues suggest infrastructure challenges, though the lack of recorded violations during inspections indicates some responsiveness to complaints. The concentration of heating-related complaints, particularly recent ones, marks these as the most significant ongoing issue at the property.
