308 Knickerbocker Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237

308 Knickerbocker Avenue is a three-story, two-family residential building located in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Albert Khadeida. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in 2021 when water-related violations were documented in Apartment 2, including incidents of mold and ceiling water leaks in the bathroom and hallway.

These issues were addressed through inspections that resulted in multiple Housing Maintenance Code Violations, including inadequate bathroom lighting and broken ceramic tiles. The building has a documented history of water-related problems, with additional complaints about water leaks in 2021 and 2019, and heating issues in November 2019. More recent history shows ongoing concerns with unauthorized work in the building, as evidenced by multiple complaints regarding "Work Without a Permit – Occupied Multiple Dwelling" in December 2022 and January 2023, though inspections found no violations at those times.

The property has maintained an active record of rodent inspections, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 passing compliance, following periods of both rat activity and successful remediation attempts in previous years. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of both emergency and non-emergency issues between 2019 and 2021, including problems with doors, windows, flooring, and appliances, though many of these were resolved with inspections that found no violations. The most recent building inspections and complaints suggest improved conditions, particularly regarding rodent control, though the property had notable water and maintenance issues in the preceding years.
