81 open housing violations across 8 apartments, with 31 marked immediately hazardous.
In an 8-unit pre-war walk-up, carrying 81 open housing violations across eight apartments is heavy volume. 31 of those open citations are Class C, the immediately hazardous tier covering hot water, self-closing doors, and locked boiler rooms. Three things to know:
Hot water outages flared across multiple apartments in July 2026. Nine hot water complaints hit the building record in July 2026 alone. Inspectors logged open Class C citations for missing hot water in multiple units, alongside violations for locked basement boiler doors and failure to post keyholder contact information.
Inspectors cited defective self-closing doors across several units. On July 20 and July 23, 2026, inspectors logged multiple Class C violations for defective self-closing entrance doors and vestibule locks. Defective self-closing doors are a key fire-safety hazard in small residential walk-ups.
Commercial food establishment activity generates local venting and odor complaints. Within three blocks, 13 commercial food establishment complaints were logged over the past year. In small pre-war buildings, ground-floor or neighboring food activity frequently bleeds exhaust, cooking odors, or pest pressure up into residential risers.
