306 Gold Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

306 Gold Street is a 40-story, 302-unit residential building located in Downtown Brooklyn, completed in 2005 and currently owned by Richard Blanchette. The building has experienced various inspection and compliance issues over the past several years, with recent concerns primarily focused on construction-related compliance. As of mid-2025, there remains an active violation concerning swamp conditions from August 2024, and several construction safety compliance actions were initiated in early 2025.

The property has undergone multiple Local Law 188 compliance inspections, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 resulting in the inspector being unable to gain access. Previous years have shown some concerning patterns, including two instance of unauthorized construction in 2021-2022, though these violations were eventually resolved with penalties totaling $5,625. The building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding pest management in recent years, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past three reporting periods (2021-2024), though there were two isolated cases in 2020-2021 that were promptly addressed.

Rodent inspections have consistently resulted in passing grades, with the most recent inspection in January 2023 showing no violations. The property has experienced three Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) food establishment-related complaints between 2018-2021, primarily concerning ventilation and food contamination issues, though these were resolved through official notifications to the owner. The elevator system has undergone regular maintenance, with violations noted in 2019 and 2022 being dismissed or resolved through proper certification processes. While the building has had its share of compliance issues, most have been addressed through regular inspections and appropriate corrective actions, though the recent active violation regarding swamp conditions and construction compliance warrants attention.
