90 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11201

90 Atlantic Avenue is a four-story, 10-unit residential building located in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, and owned by Drew Popkin. The 1851 structure is currently facing multiple maintenance and safety issues, with recent complaints in November 2024 regarding unsafe mold conditions, indoor air quality, water leaks, and ventilation system problems, though HPD inspections did not find violations in these cases.

The building has accumulated several open violations as of November 2024, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 5, broken ceramic tiles in the first-floor public hall, and illegal alterations in Apartment 1C involving unauthorized duplex conversion with cellar access. The property has a documented history of various maintenance concerns, including a rodent issue in 2019, multiple door-related safety violations in 2019 involving front entrance security and self-closing mechanisms, and unauthorized building modifications.

Inspections in 2022-2023 revealed concerns about illegal plumbing fixtures in the cellar and occupancy violations relating to unauthorized alterations. While there have been historical violations related to building systems and safety features, including fire escape obstructions and security concerns, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations since 2019 and successfully addressed several environmental control board violations. Recent complaints and open violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that require attention, though many historical violations have been resolved or dismissed through proper remediation or inspection processes.
