526 Williams Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
526 Williams Avenue is a 16-unit, 4-story New Law tenement building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Meredith Marshall. The property has experienced recurring issues with water damage and mold over the past three years, with multiple emergency complaints recorded for heavy flow water leaks in 2023, 2024, and most recently in June 2025. These conditions have resulted in both Class B and Class C violations related to water leaks, ceiling mold, and plaster damage in Apartment 4D, particularly noting ongoing problems with the roof leakage affecting ceilings and walls.
The building has also seen complaints regarding heating issues, with an emergency heat/hot water complaint filed in February 2025, though HPD was unable to gain access for inspection. Earlier concerns included electrical problems and refrigeration issues, though these were resolved. Despite these maintenance challenges, the building has maintained an active compliance record regarding bedbug infestation, with no reported cases or need for eradication in the past five reporting periods (2019-2024).
The building's management has addressed several violations, with many being closed or certified as corrected by late 2024. Historical records show the property passed rodent inspections in 2011 and 2012, indicating adherence to pest control requirements. The current pattern of water-related issues and mold concerns, particularly in the most recently documented cases from 2023 through 2025, suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and moisture management, though many previous violations from 2023-2024 have been addressed according to the records.
