Tenants of 225 18th Street in Park Slope and local officials in Brooklyn rallied Monday saying their rights and safety is at risk. Councilwoman Shahana Hanif joined tenants in calling for safety.

“This building has over 167 oath office code violations, 97 Department of Buildings violations and 227 on-the- record complaints. Despite all of the wrongdoing, the Department of Buildings issued a final certificate of occupancy," said Hanif.

Tenants say they face issues like mold, accessible rooftops with no barriers, rent-stabilized apartments being advertised and market rate and rent-stabilized tenants not having access to common spaces. They say the with the certificate, the city approves the building to be lived in and rented out, and they claim the issues don't get fixed.

Peter Malerba, a resident of 24 years, says it never ends.

“We keep finding one issue after another here," said Malerba.

Tenants say they faced the same issue and were able to get the certificate revoked years ago, but now they're facing the same issue again.

Tenants like Christopher Brown say it's frustrating.

"Fear was a big one, anger at what was going on. And what I was seeing. And just like sadness, you know, and real concern as well for the community and me and my fellow residents," said Brown.

Tenants say they've filed an Article 78 proceeding, urging the Department of Buildings to revoke the certificate of occupancy.

News 12 reached out to the landlord, the building's management company and the Department of Buildings, but hasn't yet heard back.
