2630 Cropsey Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11214
2630 Cropsey Avenue, also known as Waterview Towers, is a 17-story residential building in Gravesend, built in 1963 and containing 325 units. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with five separate incidents reported between November 2023 and January 2025, though all were investigated by HPD without resulting violations. A significant safety concern emerged in November 2023 with scalding hot water (exceeding 130°F) reported in basement apartment L5, which remains as an open housing violation as of October 2023.
The building has undergone several inspections and maintenance needs, including past problems with unsanitary conditions (pests) in 2021-2022, though bedbug reports indicate zero infestations in the most recent two-year periods (2022-2024). The elevator system has required attention, with multiple violations recorded between 2019-2024 regarding maintenance issues, including worn brake pads, expired maintenance tags, and other safety concerns, though most were resolved without penalties. The property has maintained generally good overall building health, passing numerous rodent inspections from 2013-2020, though there were violations related to mold, plumbing, and various housing maintenance code requirements.
Records show consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and regular submissions for Local Law 188/17 inspection requirements, suggesting proactive management of building systems. The building experienced some infrastructure issues in 2024, with an active complaint regarding façade safety inspections (LL11/98) and a resolved violation concerning cracks and potholes. While the history shows various maintenance challenges, many have been addressed promptly, though the ongoing hot water concerns and the open violation regarding scalding temperatures represent notable current issues as of 2023.
