236 North 12th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The 4-story, 3-unit residential building at 236 North 12th Street in Greenpoint, owned by Maxwell Seibald, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues since its construction in 2005. Most notably, in August 2021, the building faced multiple emergency violations including unsanitary conditions (mold), water leaks, and safety concerns related to smoke detectors, particularly affecting apartment 3.
The building has also dealt with recurring bedbug reporting requirements, with inspections showing no infested units from 2021 through 2024, though violations were noted for not filing annual reports in 2022 and 2023. Recent activity includes three complaints in late September 2024 regarding construction safety and compliance issues, with two violations related to inadequate sidewalk shed installation and one for work contrary to approved plans. These led to environmental control board violations with penalties totaling $5,030, though one was resolved before final disposition.
The building has documented rodent activity in late 2022, and there have been various safety equipment violations over the years, including issues with carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors in 2021. However, inspections from the Department of Buildings in 2021-2024 generally resulted in violations being addressed and closed, with minor exceptions. The property has experienced periods of construction-related issues, as evidenced by multiple tenant safety inspections and violations related to building entrance conditions and maintenance of common areas.
