2630 Harway Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The two-family converted home at 2630 Harway Avenue in Gravesend, owned by Mohammad Ramzan, has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, particularly between 2020-2021. The building, constructed in 1931, underwent numerous plumbing-related complaints in 2020, including issues with toilets, bathtubs, and sinks, though no violations were issued for these incidents. More seriously, there were multiple heating and hot water complaints in May 2020 affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with violations documented.

Emergency safety concerns were also notable during this period, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and fire escape conditions, though these were subsequently resolved. More recent inspections have shown ongoing attention to building requirements, particularly regarding bedbug reporting compliance. The building was cited for not filing its annual bedbug report in 2021-2024, though recent filings indicate no infestation issues, with the most recent report (April 2024) showing zero infested units.

Other violations from 2020-2021 included issues with fire escape obstructions, damaged skylights, and various safety concerns in the public areas, most of which have been addressed. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of urgent repairs and routine maintenance, with particular attention needed during the 2020-2021 period to address various plumbing, heating, and safety concerns. Since those initial years, the most recent records indicate improved compliance with safety and maintenance requirements, though the frequency of violations during 2020-2021 suggests that period was particularly challenging in terms of building maintenance and resident comfort.
