370 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

370 Union Street in Carroll Gardens is a 4-story, 16-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Zipporah Goldstein. The property has experienced significant recent issues with heat and hot water systems, particularly in November 2024, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding system failures affecting the entire building. These complaints resulted in both duplicate reports and at least one inspection where conditions were found to not violate HPD housing laws, though a plumbing issue from November 16, 2024, could not be inspected due to access issues.

The building also currently has two active violations related to the failure to file required external low pressure inspections for 2020 and 2021, issued on June 30, 2023. The building's history reveals recurring safety and maintenance concerns, particularly in 2022 when multiple violations related to fire safety were documented, including issues with self-closing doors and emergency notices. There have been repeated concerns about unauthorized modifications to security features, with several "Illegal Conversion" complaints filed between 2019 and 2022, though inspections generally resulted in access denial.

During 2024, multiple 311 calls about heating issues were logged between November 15 and November 21, including some complaints that were duplicative in nature. Despite these issues, it is worth noting that the building has maintained a clear record regarding bedbug infestations since 2020, with no reports of infestation in any of the annual filings. The most recent rodent inspections in September 2021 and July 2019 noted rat activity, though a July 2019 compliance inspection resulted in passing status.
