101 Java Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

101 Java Street in Greenpoint is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 1928, currently owned by Peter Kostakopoulos. The property has a significant number of open violations as of 2024, including multiple concerning building systems and safety features. These violations include failures to maintain and properly secure the roof bulkhead doors (classified as Class C), a leaking roof affecting the 4th story public hall (Class B), and multiple issues with fire retardant materials in the public hall ceiling.

The building's maintenance record shows recurring violations related to paint requirements in the 4th story public hall and bedbug reporting requirements, though recent bedbug reports for 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 indicated no infestation incidents. More recently, between 2023 and 2024, the building has accumulated several open violations for failure to file required external low-pressure inspections for multiple years (2019-2022), which represent ongoing safety compliance concerns. The building has experienced some concerning pest management issues in the past, with a rat sighting reported in 2019, though subsequent rodent inspections in July 2019 showed compliance with health requirements.

The property has been subject to two Department of Buildings complaints in 2021, both of which were resolved with no violations found. The inspection history indicates persistent maintenance challenges, particularly regarding the 4th story public hall area, with multiple open violations remaining unresolved over extended periods. While some violations from 2022 and 2021 have been closed, the current status as of 2024 shows an ongoing pattern of delayed resolution for both building maintenance and safety inspection requirements.
