392 Linden Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The six-unit, three-story tenement building at 392 Linden Street in Bushwick, owned by David Unsdorfer and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past seven years. Most notably, the building faced heating and hot water system failures in both 2021 and 2019, with the 2021 incident being classified as an emergency situation affecting the entire building. A cluster of safety-related complaints emerged in November 2019, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, fire escape access, and lighting, all of which were subsequently closed.

The property has also dealt with multiple water-related issues, including heavy flow leaks in 2021 and 2019, and a slow leak in 2018, though inspections resulted in no violations being issued for the latter two incidents. Additional concerns include reports of pest infestations, with violations noted in November 2019 and an inspection in August 2018 finding pests but no violations. The building has had three separate complaints regarding an unlicensed day care operation between March and June 2020, which were investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

More recent issues include a garbage/recycling storage sanitation complaint from May 2023. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, it's worth noting that the most recent bedbug reports for 2021-2022 and 2020-2021 showed no instances of infestation, successful eradication, or re-infestation cases. The building's violation history shows a pattern of unresolved safety and maintenance issues, particularly during 2019-2021, though most recent complaints have been addressed, and there have been no reported heating system failures since 2021.
