276 Chauncey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
276 Chauncey Street is a 4-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Hershy Beigel and constructed in 1920. The property has experienced recurring issues with mold, particularly evident in 2022-2023, with multiple unsanitary condition complaints filed between September 2022 and October 2023, including several instances where violations were noted. The building also experienced a window safety issue in June 2022 and a slow water leak in July 2018.
In September 2023, the building received several Housing Maintenance Code violations regarding mold conditions in the basement and Apartment 1L, including approximately 20 square feet of visible mold that received an upgrade to Class B status. While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since late 2020 (showing no reported infestations in the past three filing periods), there were two previous instances in 2020-2021 where one unit each required eradication. The property had three Department of Buildings violations issued in 2023 related to failure to file annual inspection reports, though all were dismissed by August 2024.
Regular rodent inspections in recent years (2019, 2022, 2024, and 2025) have all passed, indicating no current rodent issues. The building's most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 showed no concerns. In early 2024, a specific Housing Maintenance violation was noted regarding peeling paint in Apartment 1L. The building has maintained generally good inspection outcomes, with no active violations as of the most recent review date, though the persistent mold issues and safety concerns related to window guards in 2022 warrant attention.
