1255 36th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218
The three-story, six-unit residential building at 1255 36th Street in Kensington, owned by Musa Husejnovic and constructed in 1931 as a New Law Tenement, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. In early 2024, multiple safety concerns were documented, including problems with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, window guards, and the presence of mold and pests, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations in these cases.
A significant concern emerged in early 2024 regarding lead paint hazard compliance, with open violations on record for apartments 2F and 3F, as well as a failure to provide required documentation related to lead-based paint notices and inspections. The building's recent history also includes a heating system failure affecting the entire building in September 2021, though HPD was unable to inspect the premises during their investigation of this complaint.
A more recent violation from June 2023 remains active, pertaining to the failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with the most recent 2025 filing confirming zero infested units for the 2023-2024 period, following similar reports of no infestations in previous years (2021-2022 and 2022-2023). While several violations and complaints have been documented, it's noteworthy that many HPD inspections have resulted in no violations being issued, though some key compliance issues, particularly regarding lead paint requirements, remain unresolved.
