30 Richardson Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The 5-unit, 3-story residential building at 30 Richardson Street in Williamsburg, owned by Jorge Mastropietro and completed in 2021, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over its short history. The building has had recurring violations regarding bedbug report filings between 2021 and 2024, and rodent inspections showed rat activity in 2019, 2021 (twice), and most recently in December 2022, though a compliance inspection in January 2023 passed.

The property has been the subject of numerous Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and violations, particularly during its construction phase. In 2024, four separate ECB violations were issued regarding construction safety concerns, including missing guardrails, inadequate safety netting, and lack of proper sidewalk protection, resulting in total penalties of $30,000. There have been several temporary stop work orders related to safety concerns and construction compliance issues, though most violations have eventually been resolved or dismissed.

More recent building management activities include the issuance of multiple permits in late 2024 for various construction work, suggesting ongoing development or maintenance activities. A complaint about debris with a partial stop work order was received in February 2025, which is one of the most recent safety concerns on record. The building's history shows a pattern of safety and maintenance violations primarily during its early years of operation, particularly relating to construction safety and pest control compliance, though many of these issues appear to have been addressed through inspections and permit issuance.
