942 Mcdonald Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11218

942 McDonald Avenue is a three-story, two-family residential building located in Borough Park, constructed in 1933 and currently owned by Elaine Cohen. The property has experienced a series of notable maintenance and compliance issues over the past year, most significantly concerning the building's boiler inspection requirements.

The Department of Buildings records reveal multiple active violations (as of September 2024) related to the failure to file required annual low-pressure boiler inspection reports between 2018 and 2023, with one recent violation issued on September 27, 2024, carrying an imposed penalty of $655.00. This pattern of non-compliance suggests ongoing oversight regarding boiler safety requirements.

In late 2023, the building experienced several emergency maintenance issues that were reported through the 311 system, including problems with electric lighting, ceiling paint/plaster, and heavy water leaks. These complaints were all inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and, while no violations were ultimately issued, they were officially logged from December 2023 through March 2024. The combination of these maintenance issues and the long-standing boiler inspection violations indicates a building experiencing recurring systems maintenance challenges, though it's worth noting that the HPD inspections of the more recent complaints did not result in formal violations.
