283 Bainbridge Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 8-unit, 4-story residential building at 283 Bainbridge Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Anthony Joseph, was constructed in 1927 and is classified as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced ongoing heat and hot water system issues in recent months, with four separate complaints filed between November 13-17, 2024, regarding building-wide deficiencies. While some of these complaints were eventually resolved (though not always through successful inspections), a building-wide heat and hot water problem remains as of November 2024.

The building's heating system has attracted particular attention, with a Defective/Inoperative Boiler complaint filed on November 13, 2024, that resulted in an active Environmental Control Board violation as of November 20, 2024, with a penalty of $3,125. Historically, the building has maintained relatively stable conditions regarding pests and maintenance. Bedbug reports from 2020-2025 show minimal infestation history, with only two instances of documented infestations (in 2019 and 2020) followed by successful eradication.

All subsequent annual reports from 2021-2025 indicate zero affected units. The property has consistently passed rodent inspections conducted in 2020, 2022, 2024, and most recently in July 2025. A single housing maintenance violation was recorded in February 2021 regarding entrance door functionality in the second-floor apartment, which has since been resolved. While the building has a permit recorded from November 2018 for unspecified work, no significant additional maintenance or upgrade history is noted in the available records.
