273 Hull Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 3-unit, 3-story building at 273 Hull Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Ami Tauber, was constructed in 2006 and has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance issues, particularly during 2022. The most recent violation history indicates three outstanding violations from August 2022 in Apartment 1, concerning defective plaster and paint conditions in kitchen walls, bathroom ceiling, and ceiling in the first room from the north. Earlier in 2022, the building faced multiple troubling incidents including heat/hot water issues (with some categorized as emergencies), pest infestations (including a February 2022 roach infestation in Apartment 3), and safety concerns regarding carbon monoxide detector compliance.

There were also reports of unsanitary conditions including issues with garbage/recycling storage and mold, primarily in the first quarter of 2022. The building's more recent history shows some improvements, as evidenced by the absence of reported bedbug infestations or rodent inspections failures since 2020-2021, with the latest bedbug report (for 2023-2024) indicating zero infestation or re-infestation cases. The property has maintained passing results on rodent inspections from 2017 through 2022.

The most recent housing violation notices from 2023 and 2024 (regarding bedbug reporting requirements) appear to be administrative in nature. Two egress complaints were filed in August 2022, though both inspections resulted in no violations being found, either due to access issues or lack of violations at the time of inspection. While the building has faced numerous maintenance challenges, particularly during 2022, the frequency of complaints and violations appears to have decreased in recent years, with multiple 2022 issues having been resolved or closed.
