243 Kingsland Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222

243 Kingsland Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit residential tenement building constructed in 1931 in Greenpoint, currently owned by Michael Skrodzki. The building has undergone several inspections and has been subject to multiple violations over recent years. Most notably, there are two active Department of Buildings violations (as of June 2023) regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspection reports for 2018 and 2019, which could potentially impact building safety systems.

Between 2018-2020, the building accrued various Housing Maintenance Code violations related to safety and administrative requirements, including failures to properly post important safety notices regarding smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and building registration information in the first-floor public hall. While these violations appear to have been addressed based on subsequent inspection data, their presence indicates previous oversight regarding building safety communications. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management compliance from 2020 onwards, with no reported infestations in any dwelling units during this period.

The most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2024, filed in January 2025, shows zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. A permit for unspecified work was issued in June 2021. While the lack of recent bedbug issues is positive, the building's active Department of Buildings violations regarding low pressure inspections (as of 2023) warrant attention, and the historical pattern of safety notice violations suggests there may have been past deficiencies in building safety communications.
