301 Wallabout Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The seven-story building at 301 Wallabout Street in Williamsburg, owned by Asher Neuman and completed in 2017, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most recently, in September 2023, there were reports of rat sightings near the property, though these were tied to earlier complaints and the building passed a subsequent October 2023 rodent inspection. The building has received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violation notices regarding bedbug report filings for the years 2021 through 2023, though the most recent 2024 bedbug report shows no infested units.

During its construction phase, which began in 2018, there were several safety compliance issues documented in March 2019, including multiple failures to provide OSHA training documentation for workers, an inadequate construction log book, and concerns regarding worker safety. These violations were ultimately resolved without monetary penalties. The building's more recent history shows some ongoing maintenance challenges, including a March 2023 Housing Maintenance violation and the aforementioned rodent sightings and bedbug report issues.

In terms of environmental compliance, there were various ECB violations issued in 2019 related to construction safety and building maintenance, including one concerning a disrepair issue with a front balcony that required a sidewalk shed for public safety. Several DOB violations were also recorded in 2019 regarding failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous violations, though these were subsequently dismissed. The property has maintained active compliance with permit requirements, with multiple permits issued between 2018 and 2019 for various construction and maintenance work, including plumbing and equipment installation.
