208 North 10th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The 7-story, 64-unit residential building at 208 North 10th Street in Williamsburg, owned by Bastien Broda and completed in 2011, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, with a particular pattern of heat and hot water problems. Between December 2020 and late 2023, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water service, with particularly notable incidents in February 2023 involving the entire building and in November 2023 requiring emergency HPD intervention.

In 2024, the building faced additional challenges including a power outage in July and ventilation problems in the same month. More recently, in April 2025, there were concerns about water supply issues that HPD was unable to inspect, and the building was flagged for work without a permit, though this was investigated and no violation warranted.

Of particular note is a construction lead dust complaint from March 2024 that remains unresolved as of October 2023, and an A-class violation issued in April 2024 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report. However, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all nine annual bedbug reports from 2018 through 2024 showing zero infested units. While the building has a history of service interruptions, particularly regarding hot water and heating systems, recent bedbug reports suggest effective pest management protocols are in place, although the outstanding lead dust issue and missed FISP filing could warrant attention.
