285 Bainbridge Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The 4-story, 8-unit New Law tenement building at 285 Bainbridge Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Nicole Branca, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over recent years, with the most recent complaints in December 2024 leading to violations being issued. Currently, there are open violations related to non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 3 (2nd floor) from August 2024, and an inadequate heat supply violation specific to Apartment 8 from December 2024.
The building has a history of accessibility issues for inspections, as seen in a 2025 door-related complaint where inspectors could not gain access. While there were multiple heat and hot water complaints in 2018, an interesting pattern emerged with the building experiencing a bedbug infestation in December 2023 affecting 4 units, though previous years showed zero infested units.
The building has maintained good rodent control, passing all inspections from 2019 through 2025, and has consistently filed bedbug reports with minimal incidence prior to 2023. Recent inspections in 2024-2025 indicate an active response to housing maintenance issues, including a notice for locked access to the heating system in December 2024, and an exterior pressure inspection violation from 2023. The building's overall maintenance record shows some concerning trends with heating system reliability and safety equipment maintenance, though most recent rodent inspections suggest reliable pest management.
