2525 West 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223

Whitney Manor Cooperative, located at 2525 West 2nd Street in Gravesend, is a 6-story, 180-unit residential building constructed in 1957 and currently owned by Leonid Gorelik. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent being a heat and hot water complaint in December 2024, which was reportedly resolved. Between 2021 and 2022, the building faced multiple violations related to lead-based paint hazard controls affecting apartments 1B, 2A, 3H, 4B, and 5K, as well as annual bedbug reporting violations. A concerning window safety issue was reported in February 2022, and there was a power outage incident in June 2019.

The building has undergone various inspections and faced multiple regulatory requirements, including several Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections in 2024, with one completed without enforcement action required. Elevator maintenance issues were documented in 2021, resulting in three Environmental Control Board violations related to seal hoist machine leaks and other safety concerns, which were subsequently resolved with fines totaling $1,965. Whitney Manor has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management, with official reports from 2022-2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units. The most recent bedbug report from December 2024 confirmed no infestations for the 2023-2024 period.

Rodent inspections in 2013 showed mixed results, with one compliance inspection passing and an initial inspection failing for unspecified reasons. The building's maintenance record indicates ongoing attention to safety compliance and maintenance issues, with most violations being addressed and closed. Recent years have shown improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and other regulatory obligations, though the heat/hot water issues and historical elevator maintenance problems highlight some persistent building system challenges. The property has had no documented bedbug infestations since 2019 and has regularly submitted required pest management reports.
