142 Stockholm Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

142 Stockholm Street is a 16-unit, 4-story Class A residential building constructed in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Menachem Halberstam. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant being heating and water problems. Between September and November 2023, multiple complaints were filed regarding both heavy and slow water leaks, as well as heat and hot water issues affecting individual apartments and the entire building.

In 2022, additional concerning conditions were reported including plumbing problems with radiators, unsanitary conditions including mold, and pest-related issues. The building has also faced structural and maintenance challenges, with an August 2024 inspection resulting in a violation for degraded masonry and missing bricks above second-floor windows, though this was subsequently resolved with a $1,250 penalty. More recent concerns have centered around rodent sightings, with reports in both 2024 and 2025, though all these incidents have passed subsequent Department of Health inspections.

The property has maintained good compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2020, showing no documented infestations in recent years. The building's heat and hot water system has been a recurring source of tenant complaints, with three separate incidents reported between November 2023 and March 2019 when inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. Despite these challenges, the building has consistently passed regular rodent inspections, with the most recent one in April 2025 confirming no active rodent issues.
