1504 New York Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11210

The 4-story residential building at 1504 New York Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by New York Ave Residence LLC, was completed in 2016 and contains 9 units. The building's most significant documented issues occurred in early 2021, when the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) received multiple complaints on February 11 regarding unsanitary conditions (pests), electrical lighting problems, and ceiling paint/plaster issues.

While these complaints were ultimately closed by April 29, it's noteworthy that HPD was unable to gain access for inspections of the reported conditions. Prior to this, in May 2020, there was a construction-related complaint that resulted in an Oath Violation being served, and an Environmental Control Board violation was issued regarding illegal off-street parking, though this was resolved with no penalties. On a positive note, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since its construction, with all seven annual bedbug reports (from 2019 through 2024) showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units, indicating effective pest management practices.

The most recent bedbug filings from December 2024 and December 2023 continue to show no infestation issues. While the building experienced some maintenance issues in 2021 that required HPD intervention, these appear to have been resolved, though the inability to access the property for inspections is notable. The absence of recent complaints or violations in the past two years suggests improved conditions, though it's important to note that the most recent housing maintenance code complaints from 2021 were classified as both emergency (ceiling) and non-emergency (pests and lighting) issues.
