881 Grand Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
881 Grand Street in East Williamsburg is an 8-story, 36-unit residential building that was completed in 2019 and is currently owned by Joseph Zitolo. The building has been experiencing ongoing heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints filed through the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) from January to April 2025, including three violations issued in February 2025 related to heating system problems. As of April 2025, there are still two open HPD complaints: one concerning heat/hot water issues from January 6, 2025, and another regarding a carbon monoxide detector from the same date.
The building's systems have been repeatedly tested, with HPD inspectors often unable to gain access to apartments during inspections, though some violations have been identified, particularly in apartment 3C where two open violations were issued in December 2024 regarding defective radiators. Prior to its completion, the building's construction phase in 2018 was marked by several safety violations, with eight citations issued to Lemle & Wolff Construction Corp for various safety violations relating to scaffolding, guardrails, and construction personnel requirements, resulting in penalties totaling $20,625. However, these violations were subsequently resolved.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2019, with consistent reporting showing zero affected units in annual submissions. An initial rodent inspection conducted in January 2023 resulted in a passing grade. The frequent heating system problems in 2025 appear to be the most significant ongoing issue affecting resident comfort and safety, though most violations have been addressed promptly when identified by HPD.
