359 Linden Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

359 Linden Street is a 5-story, 13-unit residential building in Bushwick, completed in 2016 and currently owned by Adam Smith. The building has experienced recurring issues with water leaks, with three documented incidents since 2024, including the most recent heavy flow leak in early 2025 that was classified as an emergency but could not be inspected due to lack of access.

Other notable maintenance concerns include a heat/hot water emergency in January 2024 and a paint/plaster issue in April 2024, both of which also faced inspection access challenges. An elevator service complaint remains active as of February 2025, though a similar issue in 2020 was investigated and found to have no violations. The building's regulatory history shows some notable events, including a 2021 bedbug reporting violation that was marked as class A, though subsequent annual bedbug reports from 2021 to 2024 show zero infested units.

There was an ECB violation in 2018 regarding improper installation of gas meters, which was resolved with a $500 penalty. Despite these issues, the building has maintained consistent rodent control compliance, passing eight consecutive inspections from 2012 to 2025, with the most recent inspection in February 2025 showing no violations. The property has a documented pattern of inspection access issues for multiple complaints, with HPD unable to gain entry on several occasions, most recently in the water leak case from early 2025.
