308 Eldert Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

308 Eldert Street is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Prashanth Rayapudi and located in Bushwick. The building has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in 2023, particularly affecting apartments 1F and 2R.

These violations, along with gas-related problems in apartment 2R (both cooking gas and range issues), were documented between January and April 2023, with violations issued that were subsequently certified as corrected. More recent concerns include safety issues with carbon monoxide detectors in April 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification, and a cooking gas complaint in April 2023 that also required multiple inspection attempts. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various systems, including electronic access controls and sanitary conditions in 2022, when violations were issued for exposed electrical wiring at the main entrance.

Since 2021, the building has maintained a consistent record of filing bedbug reports showing zero infested units, and recent rodent inspections from 2019-2025 have generally passed, with a single instance of rat activity noted in October 2019. While many recent complaints have been resolved or closed through appropriate inspections, some persistent issues, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems, suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's age and construction type indicate typical New York tenement characteristics, with common issues related to building systems and infrastructure.
