269 Vanderbilt Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

The three-story, four-unit building at 269 Vanderbilt Avenue in Clinton Hill, owned by Artur Lambert, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past two years, with the most recent concerns focusing on stair safety. In November 2024, violations were issued by HPD regarding dangerous concrete conditions creating trip hazards on stairs throughout the building, including the 1st to 3rd treads and risers, as well as the top landing at the stoop.

This followed earlier stair-related complaints in 2023 and 2024 that resulted in closed cases due to lack of access for inspections. The building has also faced recurring issues with door and intercom systems, with several complaints filed between July 2023 and June 2024 regarding doors, door frames, and bell/buzzer/intercom systems - many of which were closed without inspection access verification.

Notably, there were multiple bedbug reporting violations issued between 2021 and 2024, requiring the property owner to file annual reports, though subsequent inspections from 2021 through 2024 show no reported infestations, eradications, or re-infestations in any dwelling units. The building's most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 31, 2024, submitted in May 2025, indicates zero infested units. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, particularly concerning stair safety and building access issues, the property has maintained an infestation-free status according to the most recent bedbug reports and violations have been documented as closed, suggesting compliance with remediation requirements in most cases.
