283 Devoe Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The 3-story, 10-unit Old Law Tenement at 283 Devoe Street in East Williamsburg, built in 1930 and now owned by 283 Devoe, LLC, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past five years. Most recently, in January 2025, there was a fire escape safety complaint that HPD was unable to inspect.
During late 2022 through 2023, the building faced recurring issues with unsanitary garbage/recycling storage. Prior to this, in November 2020, there was a significant building-wide heat and hot water outage that generated multiple complaints, though these were eventually resolved.
The building has open violations regarding bedbug reporting as of 2024, and there are three active DOB violations related to failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2020-2023. In 2018, there were serious safety concerns when multiple violations were issued regarding illegal transient use of Apartment 2R, resulting in fines totaling $90,000 for failure to maintain proper egress, fire alarm systems, and sprinklers, though these violations have since been resolved. The property has shown improvement in recent years, with rodent inspections in 2024 passing, and the most recent bedbug reports from 2023-2024 reporting zero infested units, though there are still open bedbug reporting violations as of 2024.
