614 67th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The three-story, six-unit apartment building at 614 67th Street in Bay Ridge, owned by Helen Zacharakos and constructed in 1923, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. Most significantly, there have been recurring plumbing problems, particularly involving the bathtub/shower facilities, with violations issued in both February and August 2024, and visible mold conditions identified in April 2024 around bathroom areas in Apartment 1F. The building has also faced challenges with pest control, receiving violations for a roach infestation in September 2024.

Safety and security concerns have emerged regarding self-closing doors throughout the building, with multiple open violations documented in April 2024 affecting both the building entrance and vestibule door. The property has a consistent history of maintenance issues, with the most recent bedbug report from December 2024 indicating one unit infestation that was reportedly eradicated. Earlier violations from 2022-2024 have included problems with door/window frames, heat and hot water systems, and various other maintenance concerns.

The building's inspection history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing violations, with the most pressing issues appearing to cluster around plumbing, pest control, and security matters. While some violations have been closed through the proper channels, including a notable self-closing door violation in 2022 that was certified as corrected, several important violations remain open as of the latest available data, particularly those related to building security and plumbing systems. The property has experienced periodic maintenance challenges that have required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, with the most recent inspections in 2024 revealing multiple violations that affect both resident comfort and safety. While no recent emergency complaints have been filed, the pattern of recurring issues suggests ongoing maintenance attention is necessary to address the building's various systems and infrastructure needs.
