41 Blue Slip, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The 39-story, 421-unit residential building at 41 Blue Slip in Greenpoint, owned by Linda Early and completed in 2018, has experienced ongoing infrastructure and maintenance challenges throughout 2025. Most notably, there have been recurring sewage issues, with three separate complaints between May and June 2025, and multiple heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building in January 2025.

The building has also faced inspection access issues, evidenced by multiple Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) attempts to inspect reported problems that were either unsuccessful or resulted in violations. Between late 2024 and mid-2025, there were several serious complaints, including concerns about building shaking/vibrating reported to the Department of Buildings (DOB), though inspections typically found no violations at the time. While recent bedbug reports from 2021-2024 show no infestations in the past three reporting periods, building maintenance issues remain prevalent.

The building's history includes several significant maintenance and compliance issues, including a smoking or vaping violation in late 2024, and multiple complaints about elevator systems in 2024 that were ultimately closed with no violations found. Although some earlier DOB violations from 2021-2020 related to elevator systems and energy benchmarking were resolved or dismissed, the recent pattern of emergency service requests suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges. The most recent set of complaints and violations indicates particular concern about plumbing and heating systems, with multiple emergency complaints about water supply issues and heat systems filed and subsequently closed between June 2025 and earlier in the year.
