8746 25th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The two-family dwelling at 8746 25th Avenue in Gravesend, owned by Anthony Barone, has experienced several recurring issues over the past few years that warrant attention. Most significantly, there have been multiple open violations related to the annual bedbug reporting requirements under Section HMC of the Housing Maintenance Code, with documented inspection dates spanning from 2021 through 2024.

These violations, classified as Class A, indicate a pattern of non-compliance with this important tenant safety requirement. The building also experienced a notable heat and hot water emergency in January 2022, which was investigated by both the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and the Housing Maintenance Code enforcement team.

During this incident, tenants reported the restoration of services within five days of the complaint, though there is no clear indication of whether this issue has recurred since. While the heat/hot water issue was resolved in this instance, it's worth noting given the potential impact on resident comfort. The property, constructed in 1950, is a two-story building that has undergone conversion from its original classification to a "Heretofore Converted Class A" designation, suggesting it has been legally converted to a multiple dwelling unit.
