776 Franklin Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238

776 Franklin Avenue is a 6-story, 10-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, built in 1925 and currently owned by Mendel Raksin. The most recent notable incident at the property occurred in November 2023, when there was a power outage that prompted HPD involvement, but this issue was promptly resolved within three days.

The building experienced a series of construction-related challenges between 2019 and 2020, including multiple Construction Safety Compliance (CSC) violations, several stop work orders, and a period of construction-related debris concerns. While most of these issues were eventually resolved and violations dismissed, they indicate a period of significant construction activity and regulatory scrutiny. More recent records show no reports of bedbug infestations in the past two reporting periods (2023-2024 and 2024-2025), suggesting effective pest management practices are in place.

Two complaints were filed in 2022, one regarding a permit issue where inspectors were unable to gain access, though this remained open through August 2022 without clear resolution noted in the records. The building's maintenance record shows regular compliance with reporting requirements, though there was one instance in 2020 where an immediately hazardous violation's correction certification was not submitted, this violation was ultimately dismissed by the ECB. Since late 2020, there have been no further documented construction safety violations or major building code infractions, indicating improved compliance with building regulations in recent years.
