337 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 337 2nd Street in Park Slope, owned by Maurice Sohay, has a history of maintenance issues dating back to 2019. That year saw multiple reports of unsanitary conditions, including mold, pests, and sewage problems, though housing inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.

The building received several Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2019, including problems with the roof cornice, stoop mortar, street number visibility, and missing notice frames. Two violations were particularly notable: one involved the illegal installation of a security bolt in a public hall, and another required the building owner to maintain a gas leak emergency notice in a common area. Between 2022 and 2025, the building has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infested dwelling units or eradicated units in each of the mandatory annual reports submitted between 2021 and 2025.

An inspection conducted in March 2023 resulted in a violation related to the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though given the subsequent filings showing no infestations, this appears to be a technical oversight. The building's recent history shows improved compliance with health and safety regulations, with no major recent complaints or violations on record. Earlier rodent inspections in 2010 indicated rat activity initially, but a subsequent compliance inspection passed with no issues noted.
