1054 East 15th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230

The 6-unit, 3-story building at 1054 East 15th Street in Midwood, owned by Akram Khan, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent concerns being documented in 2024. A notable unsanitary condition involving pests was reported in July 2024, for which violations were issued.

In February 2024, multiple safety-related complaints were filed and investigated, including issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, window guards, and ceiling conditions; however, no violations were found in these cases. The building's most significant recent violations were identified in August 2024 in Apartment 5, including lead paint concerns in the kitchen cabinets and baseboards, an illegal double-cylinder lock on the entrance door, and various maintenance issues such as a broken bathroom wash basin and other repair needs.

Looking back historically, the building has maintained a relatively stable record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past seven years (2019-2025). Previous complaints from 2021 revealed various issues including problems with appliances (electric/gas range, refrigerator), water leaks, and ceiling paint concerns, with some violations being issued. While many of the building's recent violations and complaints have been addressed and closed, including several in 2024 related to bathroom repairs, cabinet painting requirements, and safety devices, it's worth noting that some issues required multiple interventions to resolve, such as the lead paint remediation process which continued into late 2024 with certifications showing resolution in October and December 2024.
