295 Stuyvesant Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233

295 Stuyvesant Avenue is a three-unit, three-story building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, built in 1888 and currently owned by Steve Faison. The building has experienced several recurring issues over recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in March 2022, when multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions including mold and pest infestations, as well as heat and hot water problems. During this period, Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect the reported conditions in multiple instances.

While some appliance-related complaints were investigated and found to have no violations, the building faced various maintenance challenges including issues with wall conditions (paint/plaster) and heating systems. In 2024, several violations were issued during a July inspection, primarily related to administrative requirements such as posting building information and notices. Notably, there is an open Class B violation concerning a defective fire egress ladder leading to the roof scuttle opening.

However, recent inspections indicate improvement in pest management, with the most recent bedbug report (2024-12-02) showing no infested units, and rodent inspections in 2022, 2024, and 2025 passing without issues. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of heat/hot water issues, appliance-related problems, and occasional pest concerns, though many of these complaints have been resolved through HPD interventions. The property has demonstrated compliance with the annual bedbug reporting requirement since 2021, and recent rodent inspections indicate successful pest management efforts.
