Questions about this building

Does 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn have open violations?

Yes. 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn had 127 open violations on October 10, 2026: 125 from HPD and 2 from OATH/ECB. 38 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 4 years, since July 27, 2022.

Is 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn getting better or worse?

New violations are coming in faster than certifications are filed. 31 new Class C against 3 certifications filed 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.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn?

Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 3 Class C violations: 1 by the original certify-by date, 2 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 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn have an OATH hearing coming up?

Yes. A hearing on a DOB summons is set for May 10, 2027. 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 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn have active DOB violations?

Yes. 3 active DOB violations. The newest was issued June 20, 2023. 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.

Is 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn in housing court?

Yes. 1 open housing court case, opened October 2, 2025. 52 housing court cases here since 2005. 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 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn?

Yes. 3 DOB complaints, 2 of them conversion complaints, in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed June 8, 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 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn marked completed?

Yes. 6 completed HPD emergency repair orders since October 12, 2023, awarded for $5,352 in total. The most recent of the 6, a general construction order, was opened July 13, 2026. 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.

When was the boiler at 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn last inspected?

On February 17, 2026. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.

Is 209 East 34 Street, 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.

Is 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn rent stabilized?

The building has rent-stabilized apartments on its 2024 registration. That comes from the Rent Guidelines Board's list of buildings with at least one stabilized apartment registered that year. Buildings that registered late are left off, and a 421-a or J-51 building can leave stabilization when its tax benefit ends. A particular apartment's status is for NYS HCR to say.

When was 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn built?

The city's record gives 1926 as the year 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up building with 4 floors.

How many apartments does 209 East 34 Street, Brooklyn have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 70 residential units at 209 East 34 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 hearing dates, OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB NOW work permits, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection 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, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB NOW work permits, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection 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.
