451 Bristol Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212
This 4-unit, 2-story New Law Tenement building at 451 Bristol Street in Brownsville, owned by Paul Thompson, has experienced persistent maintenance issues over recent years. Since 2022, there have been multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, with recurring pest infestations being a notable concern. The building has documented plumbing issues, including water supply problems and leaks, as well as electrical concerns such as faulty outlets.
Recent 311 service requests in 2025 highlighted issues with pests, water leaks, and ceiling problems, though inspectors were unable to gain access to perform necessary evaluations. The building has been cited for various violations, including several active violations for failure to file annual low pressure inspections between 2018-2024 and an open violation from 2023 regarding refuse accumulation in the rear yard. Inspection records show historical issues with bedbugs and rodent infestations, though recent bedbug reports for 2025 and 2023 indicate no current infestations.
Notable violations from 2023 include problems with a bathroom door (apartment 2R), roof leaks affecting ceilings, and insufficient smoke detector functioning (apartment 2F), along with the presence of mold and roach infestation. While some violations from previous years have been resolved, the building continues to show recurring patterns of maintenance challenges, particularly regarding timely inspections and access for HPD inspectors. The property has also maintained an active compliance approach to pest control, with no recorded infestations in recent bedbug reporting periods.
