1901 51st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

1901 51st Street is a 4-story, 26-unit residential building located in Borough Park, constructed in 1984 and currently owned by Avrohom Landau. The property has experienced recurring water-related issues over the past several years, with multiple complaints about leaks reported between 2018 and 2021, including both slow and heavy flow incidents. Notably, there is an active Housing Maintenance Code violation from 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports and several open violations from 2021 related to maintenance issues in Apartment 4E, including problems with ceiling plaster, door repairs, and water leakage affecting the ceiling.

External maintenance concerns were documented in 2018, noting minor brick chipping or spalling on the building's facade. The building currently has multiple active Department of Buildings violations from 2023-2024, primarily concerning the failure to file required energy efficiency documentation and low pressure inspection records. These violations indicate non-compliance with building safety and energy efficiency requirements.

The property has shown inconsistency in addressing inspection access for HPD during at least two complaints (2018 and 2021), which could suggest potential challenges in building maintenance response protocols. While some complaints were closed without violations being issued, the pattern of water-related issues and current open violations suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The most recent significant concerns relate to energy efficiency compliance, with multiple violations from 2023 regarding benchmarking reports and energy score display requirements, though all building classes are listed as "ACTIVE".
