280 Troutman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

280 Troutman Street is a three-story, six-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Noah Pan. The building has experienced several significant issues over the past few years, with the most notable being recent boiler system problems. In 2024, the building received a Department of Buildings violation for a defective/inoperative boiler chimney base cleanout, resulting in a $250 penalty.

This followed a pattern of boiler-related violations, including multiple failure-to-file inspection reports between 2019-2023, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. The building has had recurring issues with heat and hot water, as evidenced by a 2019 complaint involving the entire building. The property has undergone three consecutive years of inspections (2021-2024) showing repeated violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements, though recent filings for 2025 have shown no reported infestations.

While rodent inspections have generally shown passing results, there were several instances of rat activity reported in 2023, particularly in June, August, and December. More recently, rodent inspections in 2024-2025 have consistently passed. The building's most recent bedbug report for the period 2023-2024 shows no infested units, suggesting improved pest management in recent years. Despite the various violations and service requests, the building has shown progress in recent inspections, particularly regarding rodent control and bedbug management, with no current active violations on record as of June 2025.
