7015 3rd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11209

The 2-family house at 7015 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge, built in 1914 and owned by Richard Haggar, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the years, with the most recent concern being a heat and hot water complaint in October 2024 that was resolved within two days. The building has persistent open violations from April 2018 affecting multiple rooms in the 2nd-story Apartment 2, specifically regarding broken and defective plastered surfaces and ceiling painting requirements.

Apartment 3 on the 3rd story has an extensive history of violations from 2013, including issues with windows, floor tiles, electrical service, plumbing fixtures, and a documented pest problem that was later closed in 2018. The property had various maintenance issues documented in 2013, including exposed wiring, defective vinyl floor tiles, and multiple repair needs in different rooms, though several of these violations were certified as corrected by 2018. The most recent building-related incident was in March 2023, involving an illegal advertising sign complaint that was investigated in May and found to have no warranted violations.

The current situation suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in terms of timely repairs and addressing resident concerns, with multiple open violations persisting since 2018 and a recent heating system issue in 2024. However, it's worth noting that the property has had some violations closed and certified as corrected in 2018, indicating that not all issues are persistent. The building maintains its original configuration as a two-family house.
