159 Winthrop Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225

159 Winthrop Street is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building located in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, constructed in 2015 and currently owned by Solomon Schwimmer. The building's maintenance history reveals relatively few issues over the past several years. In early 2022, there were multiple non-emergency complaints filed regarding paint/plaster conditions of walls, intercom system problems, and issues with an electric/gas range, all of which were inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and closed without any violations being issued.

A September 2022 inspection did reveal a violation regarding refuse accumulation in the front yard (a B-class violation), which was closed by October 2022. Another inspection from May 2022 found a violation in apartment 3R concerning wall paint, though this appears to be in 'Open' status as of the report date. Additionally, there was a violation related to carbon monoxide detector notice requirements that remains open.

The building has maintained a very clean record regarding pest management, with all bedbug reports from 2019 through 2024 indicating zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting effective building management and pest prevention protocols. The most recent bedbug report from December 2024 covers the period from November 2023 to October 2024 and shows no infestations. While the building has experienced some maintenance issues, particularly in early 2022, these appeared to be addressed promptly, and the absence of any recent complaints or violations (except for the outstanding paint and CO notice violations) indicates relatively stable building conditions. The regular bedbug reporting system consistently shows no infestations, which is a positive aspect of the building's maintenance record.
