106 East 45th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The two-family house at 106 East 45th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Darryl Walls, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, in April 2024, there were heating and hot water problems that resulted in violations from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), along with a dust-related indoor air quality complaint linked to construction activities.

This building has a documented history of heating and electrical issues, including a power outage and hot water problems in May 2022, and multiple violations in June 2022 involving an electric/gas range, electrical outlets/switches, and ceiling plaster/paint. More recently, there have been multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) inspections and complaints relating to plumbing work and permit issues in 2024, though some of these inspections resulted in "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" or "Stop Work Order Fully Rescinded" dispositions.

The building's maintenance record shows a recurring pattern of heating and electrical system problems, with three separate incidents of heating/hot water issues reported in 2022 and 2024, including one emergency complaint that was promptly addressed. The property has undergone some recent construction or modification work, as evidenced by the 2024 complaints regarding plumbing work and construction dust, though the final outcomes of these complaints indicate varying degrees of resolution. It's worth noting that the building has no reported bedbug infestations during the most recent two-year reporting period (November 2021 - October 2022), with zero units affected or requiring eradication measures.
