2105 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 2105 Atlantic Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by BH 2105 Atlantic LLC, has experienced ongoing maintenance and safety issues since at least 2018. Most recently, in 2024, there was a complaint about building shaking or vibrating, along with structural stability concerns that resulted in an active violation related to bulging and partially detaching concrete stucco with cracks, for which a $625 penalty was imposed. The building has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints between 2020 and 2022, including violations in January 2022 specifically concerning inadequate heat supply in Apartment 2 on the 3rd story.

There have been persistent problems with water-related issues, including leaks documented through both HPD complaints and violations, particularly affecting the bathroom of Apartment 2. Additional concerns include a general ventilation system complaint in September 2021, pest issues, and several housing maintenance code violations that remain open as of 2025, including problems with the fire escape's drop ladder shoe and various repair needs in Apartment 2. The building's history also reveals significant structural issues, including a collapsed brick fence wall noted in 2018.

While there were several rodent activity reports between 2018-2019, recent inspections (2019 onwards) show improved conditions, with the last recorded rat activity being in 2019 and subsequent inspections passing. The property has undergone some permitted work, including electrical and plumbing modifications, though there was a work without permit violation issued in 2023 related to an AC unit installation. Despite these ongoing issues, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the building since the inspections began, with the last two reporting periods (2019-2020 and 2018-2019) showing no affected units. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and infrastructure, particularly during winter months, with multiple instances of residents reporting inadequate heat and hot water.
