252 Stockholm Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The 8-unit residential building at 252 Stockholm Street in Bushwick, owned by Isaac Weiss, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years, with particular problems emerging in late 2024. Most recently, in November 2024, the building faced multiple electrical issues including power outages, wiring problems, and lighting failures, along with concerns about pests. These electrical problems were classified as emergencies, while the pest issue was noted as non-emergency. The building has also faced repeated challenges with heating and hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple complaints throughout late 2024.

In October 2024, a door/window issue was investigated and found not to violate housing laws. The property has documented violations related to apartment 2R, including mold, pest infestations (roaches and mice), and bathroom maintenance issues, all identified during inspections in 2024. Additionally, there are historical concerns about lead paint hazards in apartment 1R, as noted in a May 2024 violation that remains open. The building has a pattern of access issues during inspections, as evidenced by multiple Department of Buildings complaints from 2020-2023 regarding suspected illegal conversions, though an illegal residence violation was resolved in 2020.

Environmental control board records from 2020 indicated a violation regarding residence occupancy beyond approved limits. More recently, rodent activity has been a persistent problem, with multiple inspections from 2023 through 2025 showing rat activity and bait application, particularly in late 2023 and throughout 2024. The building's bedbug reporting history shows no infestations from 2019 through 2024, suggesting effective management of that particular issue. The property has undergone various maintenance inspections and remediation efforts, with some violations being addressed while others remain open as of late 2024.
