510 Chauncey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The 27-unit, 5-story building at 510 Chauncey Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Claudette Henry and constructed in 1926, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, with the most significant problems emerging in early 2025. In February 2025, multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold, pests, and significant water leaks, as well as concerns about flooring, walls, and plaster. These complaints were all closed by March 2025, but inspections were reportedly unable to be completed, with HPD urging tenants to re-file if issues persisted.
The building has ongoing active violations as of late 2024, including lead paint hazards, mold issues, and problems with building entrance doors. Previous maintenance issues have been documented through various complaints, with significant work needed in apartments 1A, 3A, 4C, and 5C between 2021 and 2024, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, door repairs, and paint conditions. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of infrastructure and safety concerns, including multiple emergency violations in 2024 related to fire safety systems (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors), significant water flow problems, and various plumbing and appliance issues.
Structural concerns have been documented, with Department of Buildings violations noting facade and building wall maintenance needs, particularly regarding cracks observed at the parapet wall and window lintels. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the past eight reporting periods from 2018 to 2025, and rodent inspections between 2014 and 2022 consistently passed. However, there are multiple active Department of Buildings violations as of 2023-2024 regarding failure to file certain inspections and display required energy efficiency information, and sidewalk shed-related violations that resulted in substantial penalties in 2024.
