31 Highlawn Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11223
The two-story, four-unit tenement building at 31 Highlawn Avenue in Gravesend, owned by Barish Chan and constructed in 1932, has experienced several notable events over the past five years. Most recently, the building successfully met its bedbug reporting requirements for the 2022-2023 period, with no reported infestations, continuing a pattern of proper compliance since 2019.
The property underwent significant work in 2019, which resulted in two Environmental Control Board violations related to unauthorized construction modifications, including improper kitchen piping installation and electrical work, though these violations were later resolved with no penalties due. The Department of Buildings received three complaints between 2019 and 2020, including one regarding gas utilities, though access was denied for inspection, and all complaints were ultimately closed.
A stop work order issued in March 2019 was fully rescinded by July 2019, and a December 2019 violation was dismissed in September 2020 following proper job sign-off. The building's permit history shows the issuance of electrical and plumbing permits in April 2019, suggesting these were related to the construction work that triggered the subsequent violations.
