43 Mac Donough Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The 16-unit residential building at 43 Mac Donough Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Shlomo Kubitshuk, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past three years, with the most recent problems occurring between December 2024 and May 2025. The building has current open violations from December 2024 in Apartment 9 regarding defective ceramic floor tiles in the kitchen and bathroom, while Apartment 10 has an open water leak violation from December 2023. Recent 311 complaints in May 2025 included issues with plumbing (bathtub/shower), mold, electrical/gas range appliances, window frames, and a slow water leak, some of which resulted in violations being issued.

The building has demonstrated a consistent rodent control record, passing all inspections from 2019 through 2025, and has maintained a zero-incident record for bedbugs according to the official reports filed since 2021. Looking at the building's historical data, there was an electrical wiring issue in 2021 that resulted in an ECB violation for unauthorized electrical work in the hallways, which was resolved without penalties. A series of inspections between 2022 and 2024 revealed various maintenance issues that required attention, including problems with ceilings, floors, and pest control.

Notably, the building's management has complied with the bedbug reporting requirements for the past four years, consistently reporting zero infested units. The most recent rodent inspection in May 2025 passed, indicating successful ongoing pest management. While there have been multiple instances of maintenance issues requiring attention, the building's overall violation history shows that most issues are addressed through proper channels, though some violations from late 2024 remain open as of May 2025.
