355 Franklin Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238
Located at 355 Franklin Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, this 4-story, 8-unit building was constructed in 1930 and is currently owned by Osmond Absolam. The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, most notably including multiple complaints in 2023-2024 regarding water leaks (August 2023), cabinets (December 2023), and door problems (December 2023), though inspections either found no violations or access was not granted.
The building accrued multiple "A" class violations for not filing annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024, though records from May 2025 show zero current bedbug infestations. While there was one significant rodent inspection in July 2023 showing rat activity, subsequent inspections in 2024 and 2025 passed, suggesting improved conditions. Historical records show various complaints and violations dating back to 2018-2019, including plumbing issues and a sanitation concern regarding garbage storage (July 2020), where access for inspection was not granted.
Three permits were issued in late 2018 (job numbers 321077954 and 321834752) for electrical work and plumbing, and there was a "Professional Certification Compliance Audit" in December 2018 that resulted in building violations being served. The property has maintained regular compliance with rodent inspections since 2021, with most showing passed status, though 2023 had one notable rat activity instance. The building's recent history shows some recurring maintenance issues but also an apparent effort towards resolving them, as evidenced by the 2025 bedbug report showing zero infestations and recent rodent inspections passing.
