313 Degraw Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

313 Degraw Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1920 and owned by Ariel Gordon, located in the Carroll Gardens neighborhood of Brooklyn. The building's most significant recurring issue has been problems with heat and hot water, with documented complaints in both February 2023 and March 2022, classified as emergencies.

In February 2023, HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the reported lack of heat and hot water, while in March 2022, authorities were informed that heat and hot water had been restored. Additionally, the building has faced three Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 to 2023 related to the failure to file mandatory annual bedbug reports, though these violations were subsequently closed.

Despite these violations, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a consistent record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in any of the annual filings between 2019 and 2024. The most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 31, 2024, showed zero infested units, zero units requiring eradication, and no re-infested units. The building, classified as an Old Law Tenement under NYC building codes, has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements in its recent filings, though the previous violations suggest there may have been past administrative oversight regarding this matter.
