326 Cornelia Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The 6-unit, 4-story building at 326 Cornelia Street in Bushwick, owned by Prashanth Rayapudi and constructed in 1901, has experienced ongoing maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, between April 2025 and May 2025, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests, though inspections did not find violations. The building has had persistent water-related problems, with six water leak complaints from 2023-2025, including issues with slow and heavy leaks, some of which resulted in violations.

In 2024, significant violations were recorded in Unit 2, including water leak issues, ceiling problems, mold concerns, and missing carbon monoxide detectors, though these violations were subsequently certified as corrected. The property has undergone renovation work evidenced by multiple permits issued between 2019-2021 (Job Number 320911563), but this work appears to have generated some concerns. In 2020, several Building Construction Violations were issued, including issues with safety measures, construction documentation, and fire code compliance, though most were resolved with penalties or dismissed.

The building's recent history shows attention to pest control, with the most recent rodent inspections in 2022, 2024, and 2025 showing passing results. Bedbug reports from 2022-2024 indicate no infestations during the reporting periods. While there have been multiple service requests and complaints, many resulted in closed status without violations, often due to lack of access for inspectors. The property has maintained a regular schedule of rodent inspections with passing results, and there have been no recorded bedbug infestations in recent years.
