The four-story, 25-unit tenement building at 1881 Pitkin Avenue in Brownsville, currently owned by Yoel Fuld and built in 1905, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues between 2018 and 2025. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, with incidents reported in October 2018, December 2020, and throughout January 2021, though in some cases heat and hot water were reported restored by the time of inspection.
More recent health and safety concerns emerged in late 2023, with investigations in December 2023 uncovering issues with pests and plumbing (toilet) problems, while a mold issue was documented in May 2023. The property is currently facing significant regulatory scrutiny, with multiple open violations as of July 2024, including unlawful use for single room occupancy purposes in apartments 2F, 3B, 3C, 3D, 3E, 3F, 4B, 4F, and 4G.
Additionally, the building has been subject to various inspection access issues for Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections in 2023-2024, including all three inspection attempts in 2023 (March, May, and November) where inspectors were either denied access or unable to gain entry. While the building has maintained a bedbug-free status according to recent filings, with no reported infestations between 2018 and 2024, there were earlier rodent activity issues noted in 2009. The property has had multiple building permits issued between 2018 and 2024 for various maintenance and repair work, with the most recent permits issued in January 2024 through job number 321484899.
