306 Hart Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

306 Hart Street is a 3-unit, 3-story residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, owned by Joseph Mauskopf and constructed in 2003. The property has experienced a notable pattern of emergency maintenance issues in recent months, with six emergency complaints filed in June 2025 alone, including problems with plumbing, ceiling/wall surfaces, windows, electrical wiring, mold, and pest infestations. Additionally, there are two open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023-2024 regarding the non-filing of the required annual bedbug report.

The building has documented rodent activity throughout 2023-2025, with multiple bait applications and periods of rat activity noted in inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The property's maintenance history reveals persistent issues requiring attention over recent years. In 2020, multiple violations were documented regarding safety and inspection requirements, including missing notices for smoke detector requirements, inspection certificates, registration numbers, and gas leak procedures, though these appear to have been addressed in subsequent inspections.

The building's systems experienced a heat/hot water complaint in February 2020 that was investigated but resulted in no violations being found. While there have been regular rodent inspections and some passed results, the pattern of bait applications and reported rat activity suggests ongoing challenges with pest control. Most recently, multiple June 2025 complaints resulted in violations being issued, particularly regarding ceiling conditions, unsanitary conditions, and pest problems, though some complaints were closed without violations being found. The building's relatively recent construction (2003) contrasts with these persistent maintenance issues, suggesting potential challenges with property management and maintenance response times.
