2037 Strauss Street is a 3-unit, 3-story residential building constructed in 2007 and currently owned by Shulem Berger. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in early 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed between January and February 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

During this same period, there were investigations into unsanitary conditions and pest infestations, including evidence of both roaches and mice in apartments 2 and 3, though no violations were recorded for the pest complaint from February 2025. The building has several open violations from 2024 inspections that require attention, including a non-functional entrance door, pest infestations in multiple apartments (specifically apartments 2 and 3), and problems with door self-closing mechanisms.

Additional violations noted in August 2024 include the need for smoke detector repairs in apartment 2, a broken water closet in apartment 3, and various issues with building safety equipment like scuttle ladders and carbon monoxide detectors. While there have been some pest issues in the past, the building's recent bedbug reports from 2022 through 2024 indicate successful eradication efforts, with no units reported as currently infested, suggesting effective management of this particular issue. The property's maintenance history shows a pattern of heating system problems and periodic pest infestations, with multiple emergency service requests focused on these recurring issues.
