244 Kosciuszko Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The four-story, four-unit residential building at 244 Kosciuszko Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Mordechai Halberstam, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years, with particular concerns related to water damage and rodent activity. Most notably, in late 2023 and early 2024, there were two serious water leak incidents (October 2023 and December 2023) affecting the building, with the October incident resulting in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations specifically documented for Apartment 1.
These violations included water damage affecting ceilings and walls, as well as issues with plaster surfaces and paint uniformity. The inspection also revealed concerns about missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in the apartment. The building has faced persistent rodent issues, particularly in 2023, with multiple inspections showing "Rat Activity" between January and July 2023.
However, there has been significant improvement in 2024-2025, with all subsequent rodent inspections (January 2024 through July 2025) passing without any reported issues. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with all annual filings from 2019 through 2024 reporting zero infestation cases or required eradications. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, particularly during 2023, recent months have shown improvements in both rodent control and response to water-related issues, with the most recent water leak complaint from December 2023 being closed without violations in June 2024.
