1939 Mcdonald Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The two-family residence at 1939 McDonald Avenue in Gravesend, owned by Vectour Alhalabi, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in September 2023. During this period, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) documented violations related to window frame conditions and flooring issues, although they were unable to access the property to inspect reported wall problems.

These recent maintenance concerns were officially addressed and closed by October 2023. Prior to this, the building had one documented food establishment complaint in October 2022, regarding spoiled food, though this issue was administratively closed by June 2024 with confirmation that it had been addressed. The three-story, 2-family house built in 1932 has shown some patterns of maintenance needs, particularly in its building envelope and internal surfaces.

The recent September 2023 incidents represent the most concentrated series of complaints on record for the property, potentially indicating emerging maintenance challenges. While the HPD violations were officially closed, with some requiring additional follow-up inspections, the inability of inspectors to access the property for the wall complaint during this inspection period is notable. The building has maintained its original three-story structure and retains its classification as a two-family house in the Gravesend neighborhood.
