2534 East 12th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235

The two-family house at 2534 East 12th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Manali Vora and built in 1930, is currently facing several significant maintenance and safety issues. Most concerning are ongoing problems with unit 1 on the first floor, which has open violations as of December 2023 for inadequate heat, hot water, and cooking gas supply. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues, with the most recent inspection in March 2025 resulting in a failure for "Other Reasons", though the specific nature of the violations was not detailed.

Between late 2022 and early 2025, there were multiple DOHMH complaints about rodent activity and conditions attracting rodents, with similar complaints dating back to 2010. The property has also had a complex history with construction and maintenance issues, including an active ECB violation from March 2020 for work performed without a permit, related to concrete work, electrical installations, and structural modifications. This violation carries a penalty of $12,500.

In 2019, there was a violation for failure to comply with a partial vacate order regarding debris removal, with a penalty of $4,800. While there were several building permit-related complaints between 2019 and 2020, most were found to have no violations at the time of inspection, except for one in August 2019 where a violation was served for disobeying a vacate order. The building's environmental and maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and pest control, with inspections often noting that access to apartments for verification of reported issues is frequently denied or unavailable.
