1233 East 19th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230
The 54-unit, 6-story building at 1233 East 19th Street in Midwood, owned by Eliezer Spira, has recently faced several maintenance issues throughout 2025. Between January and June 2025, the property experienced various problems including heating issues (both building-wide and apartment-specific), water-related concerns (mold), flooring concerns, and interior maintenance needs such as ceiling and wall repairs.
Notable violations were documented in Apartment 6J during late 2024, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, problems with windows, kitchen flooring, and multiple instances of damaged plaster and paint surfaces. An ongoing pest issue involving cockroaches was noted in Apartment 3H in August 2024. The building's elevator system has a documented history of concerns, with complaints about single device service and no alternate service reported multiple times between 2018 and 2025, with penalties issued in 2024 for various maintenance failures including inoperative brake monitors and other mechanical issues.
Recent environmental concerns have included sewage odor and ventilation problems in February 2025, though these were noted as being addressed through existing complaints. While the building has maintained a zero-report history for bedbugs from 2019 through 2024, the frequency of maintenance complaints and violations suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep and resident comfort. Multiple Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) complaints from 2025 show inspection access issues, with inspectors unable to complete inspections for several complaints, particularly those regarding wall and floor conditions, indicating potential communication or access challenges between tenants and management.
