1003 Greene Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

1003 Greene Avenue is a 7-story, 65-unit residential building in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 2016 and currently owned by Abraham Karpen. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past year, with particular concern regarding building systems reliability. Most notably, there have been three heat/hot water complaints in 2025 (two marked as emergencies), a power outage in March 2025, and ongoing elevator service concerns, with multiple complaints about "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" between 2022-2025, including two currently active complaints from 2025.

The building has also faced various water-related issues, including multiple reports of slow leaks and unsanitary conditions involving mold, though inspections were frequently unable to gain access for verification. The property has documented violations that have been addressed, particularly in apartment 7E, where multiple issues were identified in May 2024, including roof leaks, electrical outlet problems, and defective plaster surfaces, all of which were certified as corrected by May 21, 2024. Additionally, there are two active DOB violations from 2021 and 2023 related to failure to file benchmarking and FISP cycle reports.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the past six filing periods, and has consistently passed rodent inspections. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, many complaints have been resolved through inspection and correction, though some recurring issues, particularly with building systems and the elevator, remain a concern. The property has demonstrated compliance with health regulations regarding pest control, and most recent complaints have been addressed within reasonable timeframes, though access issues for inspections have been noted in several instances.
