298 Ellery Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206
298 Ellery Street is a 6-story, 14-unit residential building constructed in 1931 in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by Moshe Ja. The building has experienced ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges, with several active violations as of 2023 related to external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2021 that have not been filed, as well as an outstanding violation from 2019 for failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report.
Recent plumbing issues were reported in September 2023 but were not able to be inspected by HPD due to access issues. The building's history shows recurring rodent activity patterns, with rat activity being reported through multiple inspections between 2022-2025, though recent inspections in February and August 2025 have passed. The building underwent significant construction work in 2018-2019, during which several safety violations were documented, including concerns about scaffolding, roof protection, and worker safety.
These violations appear to have been resolved, and records show proper filing of bedbug reports from 2021-2024 indicating no infested units during these periods. Historical violations from 2008-2013 included issues with carbon monoxide detectors, paint conditions, floor repairs, and various maintenance concerns in Apartment 2R. While many past violations have been resolved, the current outstanding violations related to low-pressure inspections and the recent plumbing access issue suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that require monitoring.
