427 Marion Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 6-unit, 3-story building at 427 Marion Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Mark Weinberger, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past two years (2023-2025). Most notably, during late 2023 and early 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding water supply problems, damp spots, garbage storage issues, pest control, flooring concerns, and mailbox problems - all of which the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to inspect due to access issues. There were also documented heating and hot water problems in February 2023, along with various violations in Apartment 2R related to inadequate heat, hot water, and safety systems including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The building has had persistent plumbing issues, with multiple water supply complaints, including emergencies in February and November 2023. The property experienced a rat sighting in February 2023, though subsequent inspections in July 2023 passed. Inspection records indicate consistent rodent monitoring, with the most recent reports showing no significant infestation.

While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestation counts in recent years, there have been multiple missed deadlines for low-pressure external inspections between 2018-2024, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. The building's historic violations from 2021-2024 primarily relate to administrative requirements like bedbug reporting and inspection filings, suggesting some oversight in maintaining records and compliance procedures. Despite these issues, there have been no documented bedbug infestations during the reporting periods.
