387 Bristol Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 387 Bristol Street property in Brownsville is a 3-story, 132-unit building constructed in 1978 and currently owned by Herminio Torres. The building has experienced recurring issues with water-related problems, including multiple heavy flow water leak complaints in both 2025 and late 2024, and persistent mold concerns, with the most recent emergency mold complaint filed in April 2025.

There have been several incidents involving unsanitary conditions, including sewage issues, though it's worth noting that many of these complaints were either not able to be inspected or were found not to violate housing laws during HPD inspections. Recent inspections and violations indicate various maintenance challenges, particularly in Apartment C, where issues such as mold, roach infestations, and inadequate hot water supply were identified and subsequently certified as corrected in early 2025. Apartment A has shown problems with flooring, plumbing fixtures, and cabinet repairs, along with a smoke detector violation, all of which were addressed by late 2024.

The building is currently facing an active environmental control board violation regarding ungrounded electrical connections for space heaters, and there are access pathway issues from Chester Street noted in a 2022 violation. Notably, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2009, and there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years. The property has a mix of resolved and ongoing maintenance issues, with particular attention needed on mold and water-related concerns, as evidenced by multiple complaints and violations over the past two years.
