378 Metropolitan Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The four-story, six-unit tenement building at 378 Metropolitan Avenue in Williamsburg, built in 1910 and currently owned by Zachary Simmons, has maintained a relatively stable record since 2020. The property experienced a significant heat and hot water emergency affecting the entire building in February 2022, though this was resolved quickly within three days. A series of safety and maintenance violations were addressed between 2005 and 2023, including issues with self-closing doors at the first-story vestibule, inadequate front entrance lighting, and the requirement to post various safety notices regarding gas leaks and carbon monoxide detectors.

All these violations were ultimately certified as corrected, with documentation showing completion in late 2023. The building has no reported issues with bedbugs or rodents since 2019, with regular bedbug monitoring showing zero infested units over multiple reporting periods from 2020 to 2025. Recent inspections in March 2025 resulted in a health department response to a food establishment complaint, though the specific implications for residents were minimal.

The property had two food establishment complaints in 2022-2023, one regarding permits and another concerning pet-related issues, both of which were resolved or closed by the health department. A 2018 complaint about mailbox issues was inspected and closed with no violations found. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to resolving violations, with no outstanding issues as of the latest documentation.
