328 Eldert Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

328 Eldert Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential tenement building located in Bushwick, constructed in 1912 and currently owned by Moise Lajtai. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past three years, with the most recent complaints occurring in January 2025, following a similar pattern observed throughout 2022-2024.

These heating system problems have resulted in both emergency service requests and HPD violations, with inspections typically finding either temporary resolutions or requiring further follow-up. The building has also faced several maintenance challenges, including a slow water leak and unsanitary sewage conditions reported in early 2024, though no violations were issued in these cases.

The property underwent a comprehensive safety and compliance inspection in May 2022, which resulted in multiple violations related to safety notice requirements, such as gas leak procedures, smoke detector requirements, and carbon monoxide detector requirements, though all these violations were subsequently certified as corrected by June 2022. Two significant open violations remain from 2022 concerning bathroom mold and hot water issues specifically in Apartment 3A. On a positive note, the building has maintained good pest control records, with no reported instances of bedbug infestations in the past five years (2020-2025), and has consistently passed all rodent inspections conducted between 2012 and 2025, including the most recent inspection in April 2025.
