3909 Ft Hamilton Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11218

The two-family residential building at 3909 Ft Hamilton Parkway in Borough Park, owned by Robert Bauer, has experienced multiple heat and hot water issues over the past several years, with the most recent incidents occurring in December 2019. Between December 11-19, 2019, and again in December 2019, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) received emergency complaints regarding lack of heat or hot water throughout the entire building.

In each instance, HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the reported problems, leading to the closure of these complaints. These followed a notable incident from November 2018, when a violation was issued for inadequate heat or hot water in apartment 3 on the third floor, as verified through inspection of another unit, though an initial complaint reporting access issues had been filed.

This violation specifically cited non-compliance with § 27-2031 of the Administrative Code regarding hot water provision at all fixtures in the affected apartment. While these incidents represent the building's documented major maintenance issues, it's worth noting that the most recent reported concerns date back to late 2019, with no subsequent complaints or violations recorded through October 2023.
