1684 West 10th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The 6-story, 84-unit tenement building at 1684 West 10th Street in Gravesend, owned by Isreal Gluck, has experienced significant maintenance issues in 2025. Most notably, there have been multiple complaints about electrical problems, including power outages and lighting failures in June 2025, though HPD was unable to complete inspections in these cases. There are recurring issues with unsanitary conditions, particularly mold problems reported in May and June 2025, along with several plumbing emergencies involving leaks and fixtures during the same period.

The building has a documented history of bedbug infestations, with recent reports showing one unit infested and eradicated between November 2023 and October 2024, and four units affected (with two re-infested) between November 2022 and October 2023. Elevator maintenance has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints recorded between 2023-2025 regarding multiple devices on the property and failure to retain water/ improper drainage. The building shows a pattern of violations related to elevator maintenance, though many have been resolved or dismissed.

Various Housing Maintenance Code violations were documented in 2024-2025, including issues with hot water supply in Apartment C5 and requirements for maintaining self-closing doors. The building's environment has been subject to regular rodent inspections, passing most recent evaluations between 2016-2022, though there was one failure recorded in 2018. The property has also faced challenges with garbage management and storage, as indicated by violations issued in late 2024, along with other maintenance issues such as window repairs and general upkeep concerns. These ongoing maintenance issues, particularly regarding electrical systems and water infrastructure, suggest that the building requires continued monitoring.
