What the record shows

Where the buildings are All 4 buildings sit in Brooklyn. A single-borough portfolio means one set of inspectors, one housing court, and one local complaint pattern behind every number on this page.

Violations per apartment Across 79 apartments the portfolio runs 0.06 open violations per unit. No single building in the portfolio averages a full open violation per apartment.

The split inside the portfolio 1 of the 4 buildings with a current record have nothing open against them today, while 3 do. Portfolio-level averages hide that split, which is why the list is worth reading one row at a time.

What tenants called in Tenants filed 18 complaints against these buildings in the last 12 months, or 0.23 per apartment. The heaviest was 1703 Union Street with 12. 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 1922, and 4 of 4 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 1751 Union Street and has been open 1.8 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 16 violations were written against these buildings in the last 24 months. 11 of them — 69% — have since been cleared, and 5 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.
