241 St Nicholas Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
241 St Nicholas Avenue is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law tenement building in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Julio Tapia. The building has experienced recurring safety concerns, most notably with smoke detector compliance, as evidenced by a 2023 complaint that resulted in HPD's inability to gain access for inspection and a subsequent violation issued in April 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports.
The building has also faced multiple housing maintenance violations over the years, including a significant cluster of issues in 2018 affecting apartment 3R, where problems included mold/mildew in the bathroom, missing carbon monoxide detectors, absent smoke detectors, and rodent infestation, all of which were eventually closed after required repairs. The roof access area has undergone safety improvements, with violations in 2018 addressing unsecured skylight screens and an illegal roof door locking mechanism, though specific repair certifications are not clearly documented. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance from 2019 through 2025, with all reports indicating zero infested units.
However, recent rodent activity has been documented, with compliance inspections in 2025 and 2024 showing rat activity, though the building passed initial inspections for several years (2018-2022). The building received four DOB violations in 2023 related to failures to file external low-pressure inspection records from 2018-2021, though all these violations were dismissed by November 2023. Despite these challenges, the building's most recent bedbug and rat activity reports suggest some improvement in pest management, with the most recent bedbug report (filed June 2025) indicating no infested units for the 2023-2024 period.
