2742 West 15th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11224

2742 West 15th Street is a 5-unit, 3-story residential building in Coney Island, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Max 10 Re LLC. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with multiple heat and water-related complaints being the most prominent concerns. Between March and May 2025, there were at least three separate incidents reported regarding heating and hot water problems, with at least one resulting in HPD violations.

Additionally, there have been multiple water leak complaints throughout 2024-2025, including instances of heavy flow and slow leaks, though HPD inspectors were often unable to gain access to conduct proper inspections. The building also faced several electrical and lighting issues during this period, with emergency complaints filed in March and April 2025. The building has a documented history of maintenance violations requiring attention, particularly in Apartment 1A, where a September 2024 inspection revealed issues including defective plaster surfaces, mold conditions, missing carbon monoxide detectors, and fire safety concerns related to window bars.

Historical data shows previous concerns about the building's systems, including a complaint about building shaking in 2023 and exposed electrical wiring in 2021, though both inspections resulted in no violations being warranted at the time. The property has maintained an active bedbug-free record since 2019, with regular reporting showing zero infested units. While rodent inspections in 2014-2017 indicated some compliance issues, the last rodent inspection in 2022 resulted in a passing score. The building's most recent documented issues appear primarily focused on heating, water, and electrical systems, with several complaints remaining unresolved due to access issues during inspections.
