293 Hawthorne Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225
293 Hawthorne Street, a 6-story, 20-unit residential building constructed in 2015 in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, currently owned by Daniel Gerard, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years. The building has faced ongoing problems with door systems, particularly at the front entrance, with multiple emergency service requests and violations related to door functionality and security mechanisms between 2020 and 2025, including an active violation from June 2023 regarding an unauthorized electromagnetic locking device. There have been documented issues with mold (April 2023), rodent activity (April 2023), and multiple elevator-related complaints in 2023, though inspections often found no violations or resulted in administrative closures.
Previous concerns included a slow water leak (2021), heat/hot water access issues (2020), and occasional pest problems, including a period of cockroach infestation in apartment 6A (2021). The building's elevator maintenance issues have been particularly notable, with multiple violation notices in 2023, including an active ECB violation from September 2023 with a $6,250 penalty related to various elevator deficiencies. The property has maintained a consistent record of submitting bedbug reports, showing no infestations reported in the past three years (2021-2024).
Building management has failed to file required energy benchmarking reports for 2019-2020, as evidenced by multiple active violations. Recent HPD inspections have resulted in some violations being issued and subsequently closed, while others from 2023 remain open, including those related to building safety signage requirements. The most recent 311 complaint from April 2025 regarding door issues was closed with no violations found. While the building's relatively recent construction (2015) suggests modern infrastructure, the persistence of certain maintenance issues, particularly regarding building access systems and moisture-related problems, indicates ongoing challenges with property maintenance and compliance.
