7005 Shore Road, Brooklyn, NY 11209

The three-story, 46-unit building at 7005 Shore Road in Bay Ridge, constructed in 1950 and currently owned by Allison Anderson, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly concerning building systems and resident comfort. Most notably, there has been an ongoing pattern of heat and hot water problems, with multiple complaints filed in early 2025 about system failures affecting the entire building, some of which resulted in violations.

These heating issues appear to be a continuation of problems first documented in 2023, when a specific violation was issued regarding inadequate heat and hot water in apartment 3K, along with other unit-specific maintenance concerns such as pest infestations and window damage in that apartment. The building has also experienced infrastructure concerns, with complaints and violations related to water leaks (heavy flow), wall conditions, and general maintenance issues such as flooring and cabinet problems. More structurally focused concerns have emerged, with several complaints regarding retaining wall conditions documented in early 2025, and a significant 2019 violation concerning maintenance of building walls and the garage structure.

The property has active DOB violations related to Energy Efficiency Reporting that have persisted since 2021-2023. Three consecutive rodent inspections (2010, 2022, and 2023) show consistent compliance with health standards, and there have been no recorded bedbug infestations in recent years, as evidenced by annual pest control reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested units. While the building has exhibited regular maintenance issues requiring HPD intervention, including multiple violations requiring corrective action, the property has maintained compliance with basic safety requirements, passing recent rodent inspections and maintaining an active status in pest management programs.
