298 Brooklyn Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11213
298 Brooklyn Avenue is a 4-story, 4-unit residential building in Crown Heights, built in 1915 and currently owned by Thelma Davis. The property has experienced several maintenance issues, particularly during 2021 when multiple complaints were recorded regarding electrical problems, including power outages and lighting failures, as well as plumbing and water supply issues.
Significant problems were documented in Apartment C, including violations related to water leaks, pest infestations (specifically roaches), and necessary repairs to plastered surfaces and ceiling painting. Three consecutive violations regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements were issued between 2021 and 2024, though recent filings show no infested units or history of eradications since 2021, suggesting improved compliance. The building's maintenance history shows persistent attention to rodent control, with all inspections from 2013 through 2025 passing successfully.
While many previous violations have been closed, there are still open violations from 2021 relating to roof leaks, ceiling repairs, and pest infestation in Apartment C, which warrant monitoring. The electrical and plumbing issues of 2021, though investigated by HPD with no violations issued, indicate potential infrastructure concerns, while the August 2021 water leak violation did result in documented violations. In 2024, the building successfully passed rodent inspections and updated its bedbug reporting to show no current infestations, though annual reporting requirements have generated compliance issues in previous years.
