346 Marion Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

346 Marion Street is a three-story, six-unit New Law tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant and owned by Isoken Guobadia. The century-plus-old structure has faced several maintenance challenges, particularly in recent years. In 2024, multiple violations were documented following inspections in June, including issues with the first public hall bulkhead on the third story, such as an illegal fastened key-operated lock (B violation), defective self-closing doors (C violation), and problems with fire-retardant plaster (B violation).

The building also required painting of both the north and south walls of the third-story public hall with light-colored paint (A violations). Additional concerns were noted in Apartment 3R, including a broken window counterbalance, missing window guard (C violation), and an open violation for cockroach infestation that had not yet been addressed as of July 2024. Other maintenance issues were documented in 2024, including a missing smoke detector in Apartment 1L. The building has a history of door-related emergencies, with two such incidents occurring in April 2019.

Despite these challenges, it's worth noting that the building's bedbug reports for the January 2021 through October 2025 period consistently show zero infested dwelling units, eradicated units, or re-infested units, indicating effective pest management in this regard. A rodent inspection from November 2016 also showed a passing result. The most recent bedbug filing from July 2025 and previous reports from March 2024, April 2023, and May 2021 confirm the absence of certain pest issues, though regular monitoring is evident through annual reporting requirements. While the building has demonstrated compliance in some areas, particularly regarding bedbug and rodent control, the recent cluster of violations in 2024 suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that require attention.
