167 Avenue U, Brooklyn, NY 11223
The three-story two-family house at 167 Avenue U in Gravesend, owned by Brenda Elishis and built in 1931, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over recent years, with the most recent being a heating and hot water complaint in late 2024 that the Department of Housing Preservation and Development could not investigate due to access issues. In 2022, a food poisoning complaint was filed and subsequently referred to the New York State Agriculture and Markets, though it appears to relate more to a food establishment than the residential building itself.
A 2019 inspection regarding a reported egress issue found no violations at the time of inspection. On a positive note, the building has demonstrated an effective pest management program, with consistent bedbug reporting from 2018 through 2023 showing zero infested or eradicated units, indicating successful prevention measures.
While the heating complaint from 2024 represents the building's most recent maintenance issue, it's worth noting that historical records show this is not an isolated problem, as evidenced by the HPD complaint system. The building's heating system and access for inspections appear to be recurring challenges, though exact resolution details are often lacking due to access issues during inspections.
