433 Bleecker Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The four-story, 8-unit tenement building at 433 Bleecker Street in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Noach Sander, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in May 2025, multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding water leaks, mold, and various construction deficiencies involving doors, walls, and ceilings.

While some of these complaints resulted in violations being issued, several inspections were either incomplete or did not lead to clear resolutions, as indicated by the need for follow-up inspections. The building has a documented history of rodent issues, with multiple inspections showing rat activity in 2023-2025, though earlier inspections from 2013-2022 had passed. Past violations from 2021 regarding Apartment 2R included significant maintenance issues such as the need for repairs to plumbing fixtures, window mechanisms, and safety equipment including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though these violations were eventually closed.

The building's recent history raises several maintenance concerns, including the April 2025 reports of heavy water leaks and unsanitary conditions. While bedbug reports from 2022-2025 have consistently recorded zero infested units, and previous issues with garbage/recycling storage appear to have been resolved, the ongoing rodent problems and recent water-related complaints suggest persistent maintenance challenges. The building's age and designation as a New Law Tenement, combined with the pattern of both emergency and non-emergency complaints, indicate that while some violations have been addressed and closed, there remain ongoing maintenance and inspection access issues that might affect resident experience and safety.
