180 Stockholm Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 180 Stockholm Street in Bushwick, owned by Solomom Steinlauf and built in 1931, has experienced recurring maintenance challenges in recent years. The property has faced significant heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed by tenants between late 2020 and 2023 indicating building-wide and apartment-specific problems. These incidents were generally investigated and addressed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though some violations remain open as of 2024-2025.

The building's infrastructure has also shown concerning patterns, with active violations as of late 2024 regarding undisclosed areas requiring external low-pressure inspections for 2022-2023. More recent inspections and complaints reveal ongoing concerns, including repeated rodent activity recorded in 2024 (most recently in July 2025), though an initial inspection in February 2025 passed. The property has documented two instances of unauthorized conversion attempts (2021 and 2023) that resulted in access denials during inspections.

Additional maintenance issues have been identified through various violations, including ventilation concerns in the boiler room, inadequate heat supply in apartment 2R, and various door and window problems in apartment 3R. While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2024, showing zero infested units, the property has experienced other sanitation challenges, including a documented pest complaint in March 2023. The building's history suggests ongoing challenges with basic maintenance and infrastructure stability, particularly regarding heating systems and pest control. The presence of active violations as of 2024-2025 indicates that some systemic maintenance issues remain unaddressed.
