141 Chauncey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

141 Chauncey Street is a 46-unit, 4-story commercial altered Class A building in Bedford-Stuyvesant, built in 1921 and currently owned by Jay Greenberg. The property has experienced recurring heating issues, with two heating complaints in February 2025, one of which was investigated but found no violations, while inspectors were unable to access the building for the other complaint. The building has also faced multiple door-related issues, with six consecutive door complaints filed on October 4, 2024, though access issues prevented inspections in most cases.

A more recent door-related violation was confirmed on September 29, 2024, resulting in findings requiring repairs to the lobby entrance latch. The building experienced significant fire damage in Apartment 302 on May 29, 2024, with additional violations noted in Apartment 203 for damaged floors and plaster surfaces. Other concerns included an April 2024 violation for broken self-closing doors in public areas, a July 2024 complaint about a missing window guard, and ongoing lead dust issues in common areas as of July 2024. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations since 2020, as evidenced by regular monitoring and reporting.

Recent rodent inspections in July 2025, July 2024, and November 2022 passed without issues, indicating effective pest management. The property has demonstrated compliance with building regulations regarding energy benchmarking, having resolved two violations (in 2019 and 2022) by submitting the required reports. While there have been various complaints and violations over the past few years, most have been addressed and closed, though some, particularly relating to heating issues and door maintenance, suggest ongoing challenges with basic building systems. The building's history shows a combination of maintenance needs primarily related to building access issues during inspections, door hardware problems, and heating system reliability, with more recent concerns centering around building security and common area maintenance.
