1590 West 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204
The 72-unit, 6-story building at 1590 West 8th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Necha Schwartz and built in 1931, has experienced recurring heating issues, with three emergency heat/hot water complaints in recent months (October 2024, December 2024, and January 2025) where HPD could not gain access to inspect the reported conditions. The building has also faced various maintenance challenges throughout 2024, including plumbing issues, pest problems, and multiple violations related to unit 6H, such as window repairs and water leak concerns documented in October 2024.
More recently, in November 2024, there were violations concerning the compactor room in the cellar, including defective doors and a roach infestation, though these were subsequently certified as corrected. The property's recent history shows consistent issues with heating and maintenance, with multiple 311 complaints that were either unresolved or resulted in no violations being found during inspections.
The building's maintenance record includes several violations between 2019 and 2023 related to elevator service, boiler conditions, and failure to file required reports, though many of these were dismissed or resolved. Bedbug and rodent inspections show some history of infestations between 2019 and 2024, with the most recent bedbug report (December 2024) indicating no active infestations, though a single unit was reported as infested in February 2024. While the building has maintained compliance with most regulations, the recurring heat issues and ongoing maintenance problems suggest persistent challenges in building management and infrastructure maintenance.
