691 Winthrop Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The two-story, three-unit building at 691 Winthrop Street in East Flatbush, owned by Roybert Kirkby and constructed in 1931 as a New Law Tenement, has recently experienced significant maintenance challenges.
From late December 2024 through early January 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water issues, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Notably, apartment 2F has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations as of December 2024, including issues with carbon monoxide detectors, missing smoke detectors, a self-closing door problem, and an infestation of roaches, along with the presence of mold affecting bathroom ceilings.
Despite multiple inspection attempts by HPD in December 2024 and January 2025, access issues have hindered comprehensive evaluations of some complaints, though there was a rodent inspection in May 2019 that passed. The building's recent history raises concerning patterns of persistent maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems and general habitability, with multiple service requests remaining unresolved or repetitively reported over short periods.
