217 South 3rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The 5-story, 15-unit apartment building at 217 South 3rd Street in Williamsburg, owned by Shaye Stuhl and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. The most recent complaint, logged in November 2024, involved unsanitary mold conditions that HPD was unable to inspect; this was preceded by a March 2024 air quality complaint regarding chemical odors.
The building has faced multiple heat and hot water system failures, with several complaints between March 9-10, 2024, all of which were closed, suggesting temporary resolutions. Notable plumbing issues were also reported in early 2024, including problems with water supply, toilets, and radiators, though inspections were either not completed or no violations were found. During 2024, the building underwent mandatory annual bedbug reporting, with all filings (including the most recent from July 2025) indicating zero infested units.
The building's rodent inspection history shows a mixture of results between 2017 and 2019, with the most concerning periods being December 2018 (reported rat activity) and June 2019 (reported rat activity), while the most recent inspections in December 2019 passed without issues. Historical violations recorded in March 2021-2023 related to failing to file bedbug reports, though these have since been resolved as per the current reporting requirements. While the building has faced multiple maintenance challenges, particularly in 2024 with heating and plumbing issues, recent bedbug and rodent control efforts appear to show proper management of these specific concerns.
