Does 88 East 51 Street, Brooklyn have open violations?
No. On October 10, 2026, 88 East 51 Street, Brooklyn had no open HPD violations, counting every year, and no OATH/ECB summons issued in the last 3 years was still active.
When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 88 East 51 Street, Brooklyn?
Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 2 Class C violations, all 2 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 88 East 51 Street, Brooklyn been in housing court?
Yes. 2 housing court cases here since 2006, most of them heat and hot water cases. 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.
