2539 West 15th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The 24-unit, 3-story residential building at 2539 West 15th Street in Gravesend, owned by Brad Ellis, has experienced several significant maintenance issues since its construction in 2012. Most notably, there have been recurring water leak problems, with two documented incidents of "slow leaks" in 2024 and 2022 that required HPD intervention, though one was reportedly corrected according to the most recent complaint resolution.

The building faced multiple heat and hot water issues in February 2019, with emergency complaints filed on both February 11 and February 18, though inspections revealed varying resolutions, with one incident showing restoration of services confirmed by a tenant. A power outage occurred in July 2019, which HPD investigated but found no violations.

The building currently has open Class A violations from 2023 and 2024 related to non-compliance with annual bedbug reporting requirements, though historical data shows no instances of infestation during the 2020-2021 reporting period, with zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and no re-infestations documented. Other recorded incidents include a vaccine mandate non-compliance report in September 2021, though this was likely related to exterior enforcement rather than building conditions. The property has maintained compliance with most housing maintenance requirements, with the primary recurring issues being the water leaks and periodic heat/hot water system concerns.
