240 Mac Donough Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

240 Mac Donough Street is a three-story, 3-unit residential building constructed in 1891 and currently owned by Jeffrey Whaley. The building, classified as HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS B, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there are three open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2022 through 2024, indicating the building has failed to properly file its annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD.

In 2021, the property had two separate but concurrent emergency complaints regarding water leaks with heavy flow and ceiling paint/plaster issues, though no violations were ultimately issued after HPD inspections. Historical records from 2019 show multiple structural concerns, particularly regarding the building's exterior walls. The property received four Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations between April and October 2019 for issues related to loose and missing stucco and bricks on the third floor, with penalties totaling $7,375.

Additionally, there were three violations for failure to certify corrections on these immediately hazardous conditions, though these were ultimately dismissed. The building's maintenance record shows consistent adherence to rodent inspections, with all five inspections between 2018 and 2025 resulting in passing grades, including the most recent inspection in June 2025. While the building has had its share of maintenance issues, particularly in 2019 and 2021, the recent passing rodent inspections and relatively fewer complaints in the past couple of years suggest some improvement in overall building conditions.
