855 East 7th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230

855 East 7th Street is a 6-story, 131-unit residential building in Midwood owned by Bella Yusupova and constructed in 1963. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024 and into 2025, with eight emergency complaints filed within one year regarding building-wide heating problems, several of which were closed without adequate inspection access.

Notable violations emerged in October 2023 in apartment 5L, including mold presence (approximately 30-35 square feet), defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and a pest infestation involving roaches, though most of these violations were subsequently closed. The building has ongoing rodent control measures in place, with bait applications documented regularly throughout 2024, indicating persistent pest management efforts. Historical data shows the building has faced various maintenance challenges, including multiple violations related to fire safety door functionality, plumbing issues, and mold concerns.

The Department of Buildings records indicate problems with documentation compliance, such as not submitting required FISP (Facade Inspection Safety Program) reports, though some violations were dismissed upon subsequent inspection confirming corrections. The building's management has consistently filed bedbug reports showing zero infestations in recent years, and the property has maintained active compliance with monthly rodent inspections and treatments. While the building has experienced numerous maintenance issues requiring attention, many violations have been addressed through inspections and corrective actions, though the recurring heating system problems in late 2024 and early 2025 appear to be a notable ongoing concern.
