1028 East 59th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11234

The three-story residential building at 1028 East 59th Street in Flatlands, owned by Veronica Mitchell, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past three years. Most recently, in 2023, there have been multiple water-related problems, including two separate heavy flow water leak incidents in April and May, and plumbing issues with a bathroom basin/sink in June.

Additionally, there are currently open violations from June 2024 in Apartment C regarding defective carbon monoxide detectors and leaky faucets in the bathroom and kitchen, along with a violation concerning a window awning obstructing fire escape egress. The building experienced heat and hot water issues during December 2022, though these were reportedly resolved, and there were also some complaints about windows and doors during this period. Looking back further, the building has had recurring maintenance challenges, including a significant pest issue in November 2021 when both mice and roaches were reported in Apartment 3, which were subsequently addressed by December 2021.

The property has also faced bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent report (June 2024) indicating no infested units between November 2022 and October 2023, and no re-infestations during the previous reporting period (2020-2021). While many of the service requests and violations have been resolved, the current open violations from 2023-2024, particularly regarding safety equipment and plumbing issues, warrant attention. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of water-related problems, window issues, and periodic pest control needs, though recent bedbug reports suggest this particular issue has been successfully managed.
