101 28th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 101 28th Avenue in Gravesend, currently owned by Chao Yuan, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, in early 2022, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, with HPD involvement indicating either restoration of services or lack of access for inspection. In 2019, the building faced water leak and mold issues, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections.

The building's safety infrastructure was a concern in 2018, with multiple violations documented regarding the fire escape system, rear yard egress, and window guards in apartment 2R. These included a defective fire escape ladder, a plywood fence obstructing egress, and issues with self-closing doors. The property also experienced illegal parking and occupancy violations in 2019, with multiple ECB violations recorded for unauthorized use of the side lot and parking of commercial vehicles.

More recently, the building has shown some regulatory compliance regarding pest management, with the most recent bedbug report (2024) indicating no infestations during the reporting period. A new construction/renovation permit is currently in process as of December 2024. The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting requirements and has had its annual reporting obligations met in recent years. The property's history shows a pattern of emergency maintenance issues, particularly related to heating systems and building water integrity, though most violations have been resolved through corrective actions or have reached closure status.
