39 Kingsland Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 39 Kingsland Avenue in East Williamsburg, owned by Shloma Stuhl, has experienced several maintenance issues since 2021, with particular attention needed to recent construction concerns in 2025. Most notably, between 2021-2024, the building faced multiple violations and complaints related to unsanitary conditions, including garbage recycling storage issues, which were marked as a violation in 2023, as well as more basic problems like mold and slow water leaks in 2022, though these specific HPD inspections found no violations.

The building's history shows persistent concerns about smoking violations in 2022, and a brief period in 2022 where the self-closing door in apartment 1L was defective and required repair. A particular focus in recent months (as of March 2025) has been construction work that resulted in vacate orders, though these were fully rescinded by July 2025. Encouragingly, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the building since 2019, with all five annual reports showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

While there were some rodent inspection failures recorded in 2011, these are significantly outdated, and more recent records do not indicate any recurring pest issues. The building's maintenance records suggest some recurring sanitation challenges, particularly related to garbage storage, though most violations and complaints have been addressed and closed. The most recent bedbug report from June 2025 shows no infestations during the 2023-2024 period, maintaining the building's recent history of successful pest management.
