1234 East 35th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11210

The two-family house at 1234 East 35th Street in Flatlands, owned by Marva Earle-jones, is a two-story building constructed in 1925 that has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in January 2022, multiple complaints were filed regarding various maintenance concerns including flooring, wall paint, window frames, and bathtub/shower issues, though inspectors from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) were unable to gain access for inspection on two separate attempts, resulting in these complaints being closed without resolution confirmation.

A concerning open violation remains on record from March 2018 requiring the installation of an approved carbon monoxide detecting device in the first-floor apartment. In late 2021, there was an emergency radiator plumbing issue that was verified as corrected within two days, and a rodent-related complaint that was investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene but resulted in no violations being found.

A building stability complaint was filed in January 2022, but once again, inspectors were unable to gain access for evaluation. While an initial rodent inspection conducted in February 2022 resulted in a passing grade, the multiple maintenance issues and outstanding violation regarding carbon monoxide detection systems suggest ongoing safety and habitability concerns.
