34 Granite Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

34 Granite Street is a three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building located in Bushwick and owned by Linda Vera. The 1911 structure has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past several years, with multiple complaints recorded between 2020 and 2024, including three emergency complaints in late 2024 alone. Most recently, the building has faced rodent issues, with two rat sighting complaints in 2025 (April and May), though these were investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and did not result in any violations.

The building currently has several open housing code violations from November 2024, including concerns about carbon monoxide and smoke detectors and visible mold in apartment 3B, as well as various maintenance issues in apartment 3A that were previously cited and should have been addressed. These include problems with self-closing doors, window repairs, and other maintenance needs. The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections, with the most recent three (in March, April, and June 2025) passing successfully, though previous inspections in 2024 and 2015 indicated rat activity.

Encouragingly, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations, with all reports from 2019 to 2025 showing no affected units. While the building's heat and hot water systems have been a recurring concern, most recent complaints have been promptly addressed, with several being resolved by the time of HPD's inspection. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing efforts to address various issues, though some violations remain open as of the latest available data.
