170 Fenimore Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225
170 Fenimore Street is a 6-story, 35-unit residential building located in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, built in 1927 and currently owned by Stuart Gilman. The building has experienced ongoing heat and hot water system issues, with eight such complaints recorded between October 2024 and April 2025, indicating a persistent problem with the building's heating infrastructure. The most recent complaints in April 2025 were not able to be verified by HPD due to access issues.
The building's maintenance record shows several concerning issues in 2024-2025, including violations for defective smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and hot water systems in Apartment F1, as well as multiple violations in Apartment F4 related to roach infestations, missing window guards, plumbing problems, and defective doors. The property has a history of pest control challenges, with documented issues of roach infestations in Apartments F1 and F4 in 2023-2024, and general rodent management requiring attention. While the building passed recent rodent inspections in 2020 and 2016, previous inspections showed some issues.
The building's systems have also faced other challenges, including a missing signage violation in 2024 and a brief elevator service issue in mid-2024. Despite these concerns, records show that many violations were subsequently addressed, with certification of corrections in most cases. Since 2021, there have been no reported bedbug infestations, suggesting successful management of this particular pest issue. The building has maintained its compliance with mandatory energy efficiency reporting requirements, though there was a violation related to display requirements in 2021 that was ultimately dismissed.
