2223 86th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The three-story, two-family house at 2223 86th Street in Gravesend, owned by Jason Xu, was built in 1919 and has a mixed record of maintenance and safety compliance over recent years. The most significant recent issue was a heat/hot water complaint filed in March 2023, which HPD could not investigate due to lack of access to the apartments. The building underwent multiple inspections in 2021, including three tenant safety inspections and a gas utility referral, none of which resulted in any violations being found at the time of inspection.

However, during this period, an Environmental Control Board violation was issued for failure to maintain proper fire stopping, though this was resolved with no penalty. The building had several permit-related issues in 2018 concerning unapproved awning installations by various businesses, but these were also resolved with no penalties. The property's recent maintenance history shows generally passing results in rodent inspections, with a failed inspection in 2009 followed by passing results in 2009 and most recently in August 2024.

A construction permit was issued in October 2020 for exterior work, though specific details about the scope of work are not provided in the available data. While the building has had various complaints and violations over the years, most have been resolved without penalties or ongoing issues, with the notable exception of the recent heat/hot water complaint that could not be investigated. The historical data suggests regular use and maintenance of the property, with intermittent issues primarily related to business activities on the ground floor.
