368 Decatur Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
368 Decatur Street is a 4-story, 5-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Reginald Joachim and located in Bedford-Stuyvesant. The building has undergone several inspections and faced multiple violations over recent years, with particular attention needed regarding its boiler and pest management systems. While the property has generally passed recent rodent inspections (most recently in July 2025), it has been cited for failures to submit required annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, resulting in open Housing Maintenance Code violations.
The building's mechanical systems have experienced recurring issues, with six active violations related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2023, and multiple Department of Buildings complaints regarding the boiler. The property has a documented history of access issues during inspections, particularly between 2021-2023, with inspectors frequently unable to gain entry for boiler-related complaints. There have also been several plumbing and gas-related concerns, with Oath Violations served in 2022 regarding gas hook-up and piping issues, and multiple plumbing complaints.
The building experienced a documented rodent problem in September 2019, though subsequent inspections have shown improved conditions. While some recent violations suggest ongoing administrative non-compliance regarding safety inspections, particularly concerning the boiler system, the general pattern of passed rodent inspections indicates some level of successful pest management. The most recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 indicate improved pest management compliance, though the open bedbug report violations remain a significant concern.
