340 Eldert Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

340 Eldert Street is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building located in Bushwick, Brooklyn, owned by Anthony Gurino and constructed in 2013. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with four documented complaints between 2023 and 2024, including one in January 2024 that required HPD intervention as an emergency situation. Additionally, there was a mold-related unsanitary condition complaint in October 2023, though no violations were issued following inspection.

The building has had several maintenance issues documented through Housing Maintenance Code violations, particularly noted in March 2022, including problems with self-closing doors in various locations (apartment 1A, boiler room, and roof access) and encumbrances consisting of household items in public hallways. A 2018 inspection revealed a non-functioning smoke detector in apartment 1A, which was subsequently repaired, and there was a gas leak procedure notice requirement that was certified as posted. On a positive note, the building has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past seven reporting periods from 2019-2025.

The most recent rodent inspections conducted in 2025 and 2024 passed successfully, indicating no current rodent issues. The building's intercom system was the subject of a non-emergency complaint in January 2020, but HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the reported problem. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance issues, particularly concerning heating systems, it has consistently addressed safety violations when they arise, as evidenced by the closure of multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations following necessary repairs or corrections.
