1452 55th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11219
The 34-unit, 6-story apartment building at 1452 55th Street in Borough Park, owned by Miguel Vega, has shown consistent issues with elevator service and maintenance over recent years. Between 2018 and 2024, there have been multiple complaints about the elevator being the only device on the property with no alternate service, resulting in Oath Violations. The most recent elevator-related violation was issued in April 2024, requiring adjustments to door eccentrics, floor stops, and other components, though this violation has been resolved with no penalty imposed.
The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges, particularly in 2020-2021, with multiple emergency complaints about plumbing (radiator), door/window issues, and environmental concerns including mold and pests. While these complaints were investigated and typically closed without violations, they indicate recurring maintenance issues. A notable cluster of violations in early 2021 focused on lead-based paint hazard control requirements in several apartments (2C, 4C, 4E, 6F), which remain open as of the last inspection records.
The building's fire escape ladder shoe requirements were also a focus of violations in 2021. As for energy compliance, there are currently two active DOB violations from 2020 and 2021 regarding energy efficiency certification and benchmarking, though these are typically administrative in nature. However, the building's recent bedbug reporting for the 2023-2024 period shows no infestations, representing an improvement in pest management, following similar reports showing no infestations in the previous period (2022-2023).
