419 Linden Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The two-family house at 419 Linden Boulevard in East Flatbush, owned by Cynthia Serrano, has experienced recurring issues with heating and plumbing systems over the past few years. The most recent concerns, documented in early 2024, include multiple emergency heat and hot water complaints, with violations issued following inspections on March 25, 2024.

The building has a documented pattern of heating system problems, with at least eight complaints since 2022, including three separate incidents in 2024 alone, all classified as emergencies. Recent inspections have also revealed several maintenance issues in the first-floor apartment (1STFLO), including defective plaster surfaces, mold conditions, and inadequate heat supply, all of which resulted in open violations as of March 2024.

Prior plumbing issues were reported in late 2022, though some inspections were unable to gain access for verification. A separate electrical wiring complaint was logged in late 2022, but inspection access was also denied on multiple attempts. While some heating complaints recorded in 2022 were resolved, including one instance where a tenant reported that heat and hot water had been restored, the frequency and persistence of these issues indicate ongoing challenges with the building's systems.
