298 Eckford Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 298 Eckford Street in Greenpoint, owned by Halina Ledzion, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in late 2023. On October 28, 2023, multiple emergency complaints were filed and subsequently closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) regarding plumbing (radiator), door/window, and unsanitary conditions (mold), all of which were found to have no violations upon inspection. Earlier, in January 2022, there was a building-wide heat/hot water complaint, though this too was closed with no violations.

The building has had two bedbug reporting periods with consistent records of no infestations or eradications between 2021 and 2024. Notably, there are open violations from February 2022 related to leaky faucets and a defective air valve in apartment 1F, and a recent violation issued in June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2018 external low pressure inspection. The Department of Buildings (DOB) has documented one egress-related issue in October 2023 concerning locked/blocked improper secondary means, though access was denied during inspection.

The building's maintenance history shows periodic issues with heating systems and various infrastructure elements, though most complaints have been resolved without formal violations. The property has maintained an active record of bedbug reporting compliance with no documented infestations across multiple reporting periods from 2019-2024, and a rodent inspection in 2013 resulted in a passing grade. While recent months have shown a pattern of emergency complaints, these have typically been resolved promptly without resulting in formal violations.
