2201 Avenue U, Brooklyn, NY 11229
The two-family house at 2201 Avenue U in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Joseph Zelik, has shown several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in September 2024. During this period, multiple related incidents were reported and investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including problems with window panes, window frames, window guards, and a refrigerator.
Notably, while these complaints were marked as emergency issues, HPD ultimately found no violations to issue and closed the cases. The building has a somewhat concerning history, with two significant Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations documented in 2018, when the ground floor was found to be operating as an illegal massage parlor offering full-body massages, which was not permitted in the property's zoning district.
These violations were resolved with no penalties imposed. In December 2024, a construction-related violation was recorded regarding non-compliance with safety requirements by Redhoek Construction LLC, though this too was resolved without penalties. On a positive note, the building has had no bedbug issues reported since 2021, with the last reporting period (2019-2020) showing zero infested or re-infested units.
