130 St Edwards Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

The 15-story, 292-unit residential building at 130 St Edward Street in Fort Greene, owned by Randy Sulzer, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns being related to heat/hot water systems and pest control. In 2024, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints, with outages reported throughout the entire building and in individual apartments between January and April, though many were resolved quickly following tenant reports.

More recently, in October 2024, there are ongoing concerns about unsanitary conditions and pest control, particularly with bee/wasp issues currently in progress and fly infestation violations issued in Apartment 2B. The building also faced elevator maintenance challenges, with several active violations as of 2023 related to exterior building facade maintenance, including cracked/spalled walls and deteriorated window sills, for which penalties have been imposed. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections between 2019 and 2024, passing all inspections, suggesting effective pest management protocols are in place despite recent pest complaints.

Compliance with bedbug reporting requirements shows consistent records of zero infestations or re-infestations during the 2021-2023 reporting periods. Recent safety concerns have emerged regarding life safety systems, with open violations noted in late 2023 concerning carbon monoxide and smoke detector requirements in the common areas, as well as missing required notices about detection device requirements. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various systems, with permits issued in 2018 for unspecified work, though some 2022-2023 violations regarding low pressure inspection reporting remain active.
