323 Melrose Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
323 Melrose Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building located in Bushwick, Brooklyn, and owned by Solomon Kubitchek. The building, constructed in 1931, has experienced several maintenance challenges over the past three years, with the most significant issues occurring in 2023. Notable services and complaints included rodent activity with multiple inspections showing positive results for rat presence between 2023 and 2025, heating system problems affecting individual apartments in February 2023, and various appliance issues (including refrigerator and electric/gas range problems) that were subsequently resolved.
Two recent complaints regarding the building's bell/buzzer/intercom system and door issues in 2023 were closed without inspection access. The property has demonstrated recurring issues requiring attention to building systems and maintenance. These include multiple heat/hot water complaints in February 2023, electrical issues, and concerns related to windows and doors. The building's violation history shows a 2022 violation for a defective iron ladder leading to the roof scuttle opening, which was subsequently corrected.
Most concerning is the ongoing rodent activity, with multiple inspections showing rat presence between 2023 and 2025, though a recent inspection in May 2025 showed compliance. The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting record since 2019, showing zero infestation cases in the past four reporting periods. While there were construction-related complaints in 2021 regarding possible illegal conversion and work beyond approved plans, inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. The most recent rodent inspection in May 2025 was passed, but several earlier inspections between 2023 and 2024 noted rat activity, indicating an ongoing pest control challenge.
