Questions about this building

Does 859 Madison Street, Brooklyn have open violations?

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 859 Madison Street, Brooklyn?

Since October 12, 2023, a certification was filed on 1 Class C violation, by the original certify-by date. 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.

Has 859 Madison Street, Brooklyn been in housing court?

Yes. 1 housing court case here, opened in 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.

When did 859 Madison Street, Brooklyn last file its bedbug report?

On May 12, 2026, for the year to October 31, 2025. HPD asks the owner of every building with 3 or more apartments for this report once a year, covering November 1 to October 31, including buildings that had no bedbugs.

When was 859 Madison Street, Brooklyn built?

How many apartments does 859 Madison Street, Brooklyn have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 3 residential units at 859 Madison Street, Brooklyn. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, HPD's housing court cases, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through October 10, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, HPD's housing court cases, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
