1669 East 19th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11229
The 8-story, 29-unit building at 1669 East 19th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Gabriel Sakaff and completed in 2019, has experienced persistent issues with heating and hot water systems over the past year. From October 2024 through February 2025, there were multiple complaints about inadequate heat and hot water, with inspection attempts often being denied access to units or confirming restoration of service before inspection. The most recent incident in February 2025 remains unresolved due to similar access issues.
The building currently has two open violations from November 2024: one for lack of hot water in apartment 3C, and another related to defective self-closing doors in the compactor closet. Prior issues during 2024-2025 include plumbing problems (specifically with sinks) and a pest-related sanitary condition, with several inspection attempts being denied access. The building had multiple violations during construction in 2019, including safety concerns and procedural violations, which resulted in several penalties totaling $19,625.
These violations included issues with worker safety meetings, vertical safety netting, standpipe installation, and incomplete log maintenance. While most of these construction-related violations were eventually resolved or dismissed, there are still open building maintenance violations related to heat/hot water and door issues that remain unresolved as of 2025. The property has undergone several inspections and work permit processes since completion, with multiple permits being issued in 2019-2021 for various construction-related activities, including New Building (NB) and Equipment (EQ) permits.
