309 Menahan Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
309 Menahan Street is a 6-unit, 3-story old law tenement building located in Bushwick and owned by Ivan Inguil. The building, constructed in 1931, has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, most notably involving heat and hot water systems.
There were multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints in 2024 (March and September) as well as multiple water supply-related issues that required HPD intervention. The building is currently facing significant compliance challenges related to lead-based paint hazards, with open violations from October 2023 affecting apartments 1R and 3L, along with two Class C violations from August 2023 regarding failure to notify occupants about lead hazards and failure to provide required documentation. The property has a documented history of plumbing issues, including water supply problems in March 2024 and June 2023, though some complaints were filed as duplicates of existing building-wide issues.
Other notable incidents include construction work-related violations in 2022, with the Department of Buildings issuing penalties for various infractions including improper maintenance, work without permits, and violation of a stop work order. The building's current rodent activity status shows persistent challenges, with inspections in 2023-2025 consistently indicating rat activity, though it's worth noting that no bedbug infestations have been reported in the past four years. Recent inspections (2023-2024) demonstrated some improvements, including resolved violations related to flooring and bathroom repairs in apartments 1L and 2L, though multiple open violations regarding lead compliance remain a significant concern.
