221 Bainbridge Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

221 Bainbridge Street is a 4-story, 9-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Aviad Rave. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed between January and February 2025 regarding these essential services affecting entire building and individual apartments. More recently, in April 2025, there was a reported unsanitary condition involving pests, for which violations were issued and require correction by the property owner.

The building has a history of pest problems, as evidenced by multiple violations issued in late 2024, particularly affecting apartments 1R and 3R. Other maintenance issues documented in 2024-2025 include problems with intercom systems, wall and ceiling maintenance, and various plumbing infractions. Additionally, there are several active violations related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2022.

A concerning environmental issue was recorded in 2018 regarding a clogged chimney base causing CO spill, which required remedying. The building underwent rodent inspections throughout 2021-2025, with 2023 showing consistent rat activity, though there was one pass in July 2024, suggesting some improvement in pest control efforts. However, despite the significant number of complaints and violations, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years, as per the mandatory reporting requirements.
