2123 84th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The four-story, 16-unit residential building at 2123 84th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Danny Chen, was constructed in 1928 as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past few years, with the most recent concerns centered around plumbing and safety systems. In 2022, there were two plumbing-related emergency complaints in January, followed by multiple violations including water supply issues, a missing self-closing door, and inadequate glass panels at vestibule doors.

In March 2019, a cluster of problems emerged simultaneously, including issues with mold, pests, broken window guards, and missing carbon monoxide detectors, leading to multiple Emergency Housing Maintenance Code violations. The building's safety concerns have been partially addressed, though several violations remain open as of the latest inspection records. More recent records show an improvement in some regards, particularly with the building's bedbug status, as all recent annual filings from 2020 through 2025 indicate zero infestations or eradications.

The property has had consistent issues with door security and safety, as evidenced by multiple violations related to self-closing doors and fire escape obstructions documented between 2021 and 2022. An August 2019 complaint about illegal commercial use in a residential zone was closed due to insufficient access for inspection. While the building's current bedbug-free status is notable, the persistent nature of some maintenance violations suggests ongoing attention to building systems and safety requirements may be necessary, though the most recent complaints regarding structural elements and safety systems appear to be stabilizing.
