Is 621 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 1 open Class C, with 1 certification filed and 0 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends October 10, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.
When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 621 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn?
Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 3 Class C violations: 2 by the original certify-by date, 1 after it. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.
Does 621 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn have active DOB violations?
Yes. 1 active DOB violation, issued April 6, 2018. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.
Has 621 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn been in housing court?
Yes. 4 housing court cases here since 2009. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.
Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 621 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn marked completed?
Yes. 2 completed HPD emergency repair orders since October 12, 2023, awarded for $3,330 in total. The most recent of the 2, a lead paint order, was opened September 7, 2024. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.
