Is 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 8 open Class C, with nothing filed or new in the last 180 days. That window ends October 10, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

Does 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn have an OATH hearing coming up?

Yes. A hearing on a DOB summons is set for November 18, 2026. DOB summonses are heard at OATH, the city's hearings office, and OATH can move a hearing to a later date. When nobody shows up, the summons is decided by default, the costliest way one ends.

Does 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn have active DOB violations?

Yes. 29 active DOB violations. The newest was issued December 11, 2024. 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 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn been in housing court?

Yes. 6 housing court cases here since 2007, most of them tenant actions. 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.

Has DOB received complaints about 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn?

Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. It was filed April 1, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn marked completed?

Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since October 12, 2023: a general construction order, opened December 31, 2025, awarded for $2,000. 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.

Are any DOB work permits in effect at 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn?

Yes. 1 DOB work permit in effect, for General Construction work, issued June 5, 2026. A permit in effect allows the work it names. It does not mean the work has started or finished, or that it fixes any violation on this page.

What is the ENERGY STAR score for 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn?

ENERGY STAR score 22 for 2024, against a median of 67 for Multifamily Housing that year. Buildings over 25,000 square feet report their energy use to the city every year under Local Law 84. The ENERGY STAR score runs from 1 to 100 and compares a building with similar ones nationwide; 50 is the national median. The score is the one the city publishes, and this page never estimates a Local Law 97 emissions penalty. A lot that reported several properties in one year is not scored here.

When did 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn last file its bedbug report?

On May 13, 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.

Is 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn covered by Local Law 97?

Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered under Article 321, the path for certain affordable housing and houses of worship (DOB's list, March 1, 2026). Local Law 97 sets greenhouse gas limits for most New York City buildings over 25,000 square feet, and DOB's covered buildings list says which path each building is on. The list reflects DOB's records, which owners can ask DOB to correct. This page never estimates a penalty or says whether a building complies.

Does 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn have a property tax exemption?

The building has a redevelopment company tax exemption on DOF's 2026/27 roll. An exemption lowers a property's tax bill by reducing its assessed value.

When was 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn built?

The city's record gives 1942 as the year 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator building with 13 floors.

How many apartments does 45-55 North Elliott Place, Brooklyn have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 158 residential units at 45-55 North Elliott Place, 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 hearing dates, OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, DOF's exemption rolls, DOB NOW work permits, HPD emergency repair orders, Local Law 84 energy reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list 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 hearing dates, OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, DOF's exemption rolls, DOB NOW work permits, HPD emergency repair orders, Local Law 84 energy reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list 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.
