3423 Church Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The 4-story, 18-unit building at 3423 Church Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Laurie Lie Phillip, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years. Most notably, there are current open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports from 2021-2024, and multiple open violations regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2024. In early 2025, there was a heat and hot water complaint for the entire building, though no violations were found upon inspection.

The building's history shows recurring issues with water leaks, including multiple heavy flow incidents in late 2019, and a cluster of complaints in November 2019 involving heat/hot water problems, electrical lighting issues, and mold. A specific mold violation from January 2020 pertained to approximately 2 square feet on the west bathroom wall of the 2D apartment, along with water leak issues in the same unit. The property has also faced challenges with sanitary conditions, with pest-related violations recorded in late 2019 and early 2020. Additionally, there are several infrastructure maintenance concerns, including the need for repairs to ceilings, plaster, and various systems as documented in multiple HPD violation notices.

The building's violation history shows active issues requiring attention, particularly regarding inspection reports that have not been filed as required. There is a notable gap in recorded housing maintenance code complaints since 2020, which may suggest either improved conditions or reduced reporting. The most recent building inspection record available shows multiple open violations as of 2024, primarily related to reporting requirements rather than immediate safety or habitability concerns. While some previous maintenance issues have been addressed and closed, the pattern of recurring violations suggests ongoing challenges with property maintenance and compliance with housing regulations.
