383 Grand Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238

383 Grand Avenue is a three-story, two-unit building owned by Ruth Williams, dating back to 1875 and currently classified as HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS B. The property has multiple ongoing regulatory compliance issues, with the most pressing being repeated failures to submit mandatory annual bedbug reports between 2022 and 2024, as evidenced by three open violations under the Housing Maintenance Code.

The building has also accumulated significant Department of Buildings violations, with active citations for failing to file required External Low Pressure inspections from 2018 through 2023, representing a concerning pattern of neglect regarding safety compliance. A separate violation related to an overdue boiler inspection from 2017 remains active since January 2020.

Despite these violations, some positive developments have occurred: the building maintained a bedbug-free status during the 2019-2020 reporting period, with no infestations recorded, though subsequent non-compliance with reporting requirements raises questions about the current situation. Additionally, a rodent inspection conducted in October 2023 resulted in a passing grade, suggesting that at least some aspects of building maintenance are being properly addressed. While the building's age and history of violations highlight ongoing maintenance challenges, the most recent rodent inspection and historical bedbug control efforts indicate that some basic health and safety measures are being attended to, albeit with significant regulatory oversight failures.
