2 Roebling Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The 4-story building at 2 Roebling Street in Greenpoint, owned by Brandon Wechsler, has been in operation since 2006 and consists of 8 units. The property has recently faced some regulatory scrutiny, particularly in 2022 when multiple violations were issued related to unauthorized alterations and occupancy.

These violations included issues with means of egress, fire alarm systems, unpermitted construction creating additional bedrooms and bathroom in duplex Apartment 4, and illegal occupancy of the attic level that was intended for accessory storage use only. A penalty of $1,250 was imposed for one of these violations, though records indicate that all these violations have since been resolved. More recent matters of concern include two complaints about illegal hotel rooms in the building, with the latest complaint dating from July 2023, though the inspector was unable to gain access to verify the situation on the second final attempt in August 2023.

The building also had a bedbug reporting violation in March 2023 regarding the annual bedbug report filing, though this appears to have been resolved. On a positive note, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past several years, with all bedbug reports from 2019 through the present showing zero infested or eradicated units, indicating effective pest management practices. The most recent bedbug report filings in late 2023 and 2024 continue to show no infestations in any dwelling units.
