499 Grand Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The three-story, three-unit residential building at 499 Grand Street in Williamsburg, constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant events over recent years, most notably a serious incident in August 2022 involving extensive fire, smoke, and water damage throughout the structure that temporarily rendered it non-compliant. The building was subject to multiple violations during 2022 related to fire damage in apartments 2R, 2F, 3R, and 3F, along with issues affecting fire retardant materials in various public areas.
Following this incident, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding heating and hot water issues in 2018 and 2022, as well as plumbing problems with radiators in 2022. More recently, a December 2024 complaint about smoke detector issues was addressed by HPD, and the building underwent an April 2024 inspection that resulted in a violation regarding the annual bedbug report filing, though recent records from 2024 indicate no bedbug infestations or eradications.
The Department of Buildings conducted various inspections in 2022-2023, including one in August 2024 which fully rescinded a vacate order, though several earlier inspections in 2022 had found no violations. The building's maintenance history shows consistent effort to address and close out violations and complaints, with recent years showing improved compliance, particularly with no reported rodent issues in recent inspections and a clean bedbug record across multiple reporting periods from 2019 to present.
