655 Quincy Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The four-story, nine-unit building at 655 Quincy Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by David Sofer and completed in 2016, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in the past two years. Most recently, in October 2024, the building received multiple violations from HPD including issues with mold, floor conditions, and wall maintenance.
Earlier in 2024, there were concerning patterns of heat and hot water issues, with violations documented in February, and pest control problems were noted in September that also required HPD intervention. The building has a documented history of rodent issues, with repeated sightings recorded by the Department of Health, particularly evident in 2023-2024 when multiple reports of rat activity were confirmed through inspections, though recent inspection results showed some improvement with "Passed" compliance status.
The property has also encountered various infrastructure problems, including water leaks in 2021 (both heavy and slow leaks), and heating system complaints that have resulted in violations. Notably, recent inspections in October 2024 resulted in violations related to fire safety, including issues with fire retardant plaster in the public areas and problems with carbon monoxide detection equipment. While the building has maintained a zero-record for bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods (2019-2025), the persistent maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems, pest control, and structural maintenance, suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep.
