1213 Avenue Z, Brooklyn, NY 11235
1213 Avenue Z, also known as Atlantic Towers, is a 6-story, 250-unit residential building constructed in 1960 and currently owned by Edward Pacheco. The property has faced recurring heating and water system issues, most recently documented in February 2025, with several complaints about building-wide heat and hot water problems throughout 2024-2025. Multiple units experienced various maintenance issues during 2024, including water leaks, paint/plaster problems, and heat-related concerns, with some inspections failing to gain necessary access.
The building's 2024 inspection records reveal multiple open violations, particularly in apartment F6 (6th floor), involving roof leaks, defective plastered surfaces, and missing/repaired window guards, as well as bedbug infestation issues confirmed in early 2024 in apartment B19. The property has active environmental control board violations from 2020 regarding a missing door position monitoring system, with penalties totaling $25,000. Historical records show the building faced elevator service complaints in 2020-2021, though inspections found no violations at those times.
The bedbug infestation reporting shows significant prevalence, with 13 units reported infested in the most recent annual filing (2022-2023), though all were reportedly eradicated. Rodent activity was documented in 2016, with previous inspections showing varying results. The building has a history of difficulty with inspection access, as seen in multiple HPD complaints where inspectors were unable to access units to verify reported conditions. These recurring heat issues, active violations, and maintenance challenges suggest ongoing concerns with building systems and management responsiveness to maintenance requests.
