8693 23rd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The two-family house at 8693 23rd Avenue in Gravesend, owned by Xiuqin Chen, has a relatively straightforward record since its construction in 1960. The most recent and notable event occurred in mid-2023, when a complaint was filed on July 14 regarding an apparent lack of proper permits for building work.

This complaint was officially closed less than a month later, on August 10, after an inspection was attempted on the same day. However, the building inspector was unable to gain access to the property, marking this as the second final attempt to conduct the inspection.

This situation suggests there may have been some difficulty in coordinating access to the building for regulatory purposes, though no definitive violation or confirmed unauthorized work was recorded, as the investigation could not be completed. Outside of this recent incident, the building's record shows no other significant complaints or issues on file.
