299 Adelphi Street, Brooklyn, NY 11205
The 6-story New Law Tenement building at 299 Adelphi Street in Fort Greene, owned by Sergio Tello, has a complex history dating back to its 1927 construction and featuring 72 units. Most recently, the building has experienced recurring issues with garbage/recycling storage conditions, with multiple HPD and DOHMH complaints between 2024 and 2025.
The property has faced significant heat and hot water system challenges, particularly during the winter months of 2023-2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed in November 2023 through February 2024. Inspection records show that while some heat-related issues were resolved, access difficulties often hindered proper inspections. Notable code violations were documented in 2023, particularly concerning Apartment 401, which had issues with pest infestations (roaches and mice), heating system problems, and safety concerns related to doors and detection devices.
The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints between 2018-2022 regarding single-device service and no alternate service, though inspections typically found no violations. Historical records also indicate periodic pest control challenges, with a notable presence of rats in 2017, though recent rodent inspections (most recent in 2025) passed. The building has maintained relatively good compliance with bedbug reporting requirements over the past three years, with no reported infestations since 2023.
