1552 East 14th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11230

The six-story, 8-unit building at 1552 East 14th Street in Midwood, owned by Vladislav Tkatsenko, has experienced several notable maintenance issues since its construction in 2006. Between late 2018 and 2019, the building faced multiple water-related problems, including slow leaks and mold issues, particularly affecting apartment 3B. These incidents resulted in one housing maintenance code violation, though inspections did not always yield violations.

The building has also experienced garbage and recycling storage issues, with HPD unable to access the property for inspection in 2019, though this was classified as a non-emergency. More recent history shows the building has had three consecutive yearly violations (2018-2020) related to failure to file annual bedbug reports, which were eventually closed. Throughout 2020-2025, there have been no reported bedbug infestations, with the most recent reports showing zero affected units.

The property has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021. The building experienced several electrical wiring complaints in late 2018, though inspections found no violations. There are currently two open building violations from late 2018 related to water damage and damaged ceilings/floors in apartment 3B, and an active ECB violation from 2018 regarding failure to comply with a commissioner's order. The building has been actively maintained with issued permits for electrical work in late 2019 and early 2020, suggesting ongoing attention to building systems.
