    What the record shows

    Proto Property Services holds 14 buildings with a current record and 303 open violations between them. The weight is not even: 2950 West 24 Street accounts for 17% of it, while zero of the 14 have nothing open at all. Tenant complaints run the same way — 1,677 in the last 12 months, 32% of them from 685 East 183 Street alone.

    Where the buildings are 8 of the 14 buildings with a current record — 57% — are in Brooklyn, with the rest spread across two other boroughs. Bronx accounts for 4; Manhattan accounts for 2.

    How the violations are distributed Open violations are not spread evenly across these buildings. 2950 West 24 Street alone carries 52 of them — 17% of everything open across the buildings with a current record — and four buildings hold half of the total. Behind it sit 3860 Broadway with 47 and 384 East 194 Street with 43.

    Violations per apartment Across 1,709 apartments the portfolio runs 0.18 open violations per unit. one building averages at least one open violation for every apartment in it.

    What tenants called in Tenants filed 1,677 complaints against these buildings in the last 12 months, or 0.98 per apartment. The heaviest was 685 East 183 Street with 541. Complaints and violations are separate records — a complaint that closed without an inspector getting inside leaves no violation behind it.

    Age of the stock The median building here went up in 1928, and 9 of 14 predate 1960. Pre-1960 buildings carry lead-paint and window-guard obligations that newer stock does not, which shapes what turns up in an inspection.

    How long things stay open The longest-standing open item in the portfolio is at 1652 Popham Avenue and has been open 19.5 years. An old open violation is not a paperwork lag — it is a condition the city recorded and has not been shown to be corrected.

    What has moved in the last two years 977 violations were written against these buildings in the last 24 months. 797 of them — 82% — have since been cleared, and 179 are still open. That ratio moves between city sweeps, which is why a standing total on its own says less than it looks like it does.

    How buildings are linked: by HPD registration, deed, or a confirmed parent company. Being named as a head officer or managing agent is not the same as owning.
