276 South 1st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
276 South 1st Street is a 6-story, 24-unit residential building located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, built in 1911 and currently owned by Stephen Kraus. The building has experienced recurring sanitary issues in 2025, with multiple reports of pest problems between May and June 2025, though these complaints did not result in any housing violations.
The property has a documented history of elevator maintenance concerns, with a current active complaint as of June 2025 regarding a single device with no alternate service, and several similar complaints between 2020-2025 that typically resulted in "No Violation Warranted" findings. The building has also faced several safety and maintenance issues, including multiple violations for missing or defective carbon monoxide detectors (in apartments 2D and 4C) and a smoke detector violation in 4C, all of which were certified as corrected in December 2024. Other notable issues include a heat and hot water problem in October 2024 (resolved), multiple door-related complaints in April 2024 that could not be inspected, and various plumbing and maintenance violations in previous years, such as a leaky faucet in 2C (2023) and boiler-related issues (2020).
The building has shown some concerning patterns with rodent activity, particularly between 2018-2021, including multiple bait applications and documented rat activity. However, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past six reporting periods (2019-2025). The property currently has two active Environmental Control Board violations from 2020-2022 related to elevator and boiler maintenance with associated penalties.
