1916 Avenue K, Brooklyn, NY 11230
The 60-unit, 6-story residential building at 1916 Avenue K in Midwood, owned by Heshy Eissenberg and built in 1954, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024-2025, with three emergency complaints about inadequate heating affecting either the entire building or individual apartments, though inspections were unable to gain access for verification. The building has faced multiple maintenance challenges, particularly evident in September 2024 when multiple non-violation complaints were filed and inspected, including issues with walls, ceilings, windows, and mold concerns, alongside a history of water leaks with varying severity.
Significant safety concerns were addressed in December 2024 when violations were issued regarding fire door self-closing mechanisms on two floors, though no violations were found during inspections for other complaints concerning unsanitary conditions, including pest issues earlier in 2024. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of non-emergency issues being reported, such as problems with paint/plaster work and window frames. Safety systems have required attention, with violations previously issued regarding carbon monoxide detectors and smoke alarms in Apartment 4D in February 2024.
Compliance with Local Law 188/17 inspections has been documented, with multiple active jobs showing inspections completed with no enforcement action required. There are multiple active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations related to facade and parking structure reporting requirements, with penalties totaling $8,750.
