2 Elton Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208
2 Elton Street, a 6-story, 53-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Abraham Enden, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns regarding pest control, elevator reliability, and building systems. The most recent reports from 2025 show recurring rodent problems, with multiple rat sightings reported in May and June, and uninspectable conditions during Department of Health inspections.
The building has also faced multiple electrical and appliance issues in 2025, with two separate incidents of no lighting and electric range problems reported in May, though inspections could not be completed. A significant cluster of complaints between late 2024 and early 2025 included pest infestations (roaches and unspecified pests), water leaks, and heating issues, with some complaints going unresolved due to inspection access problems. The elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints about "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" dating back to 2020, and an active complaint as recent as June 2025.
Environmental Control Board violations from 2019-2020 highlighted various elevator safety issues, including problems with door lock monitoring and leveling. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of infrastructure challenges, including plumbing issues (toilet and sink problems) documented in 2024, and multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations in Apartment 1I related to pest infestations, water leaks, and defective safety systems, though many of these were eventually closed through correction. While there have been no documented bedbug infestations in recent years (2020-2025), the building's ongoing maintenance issues suggest persistent challenges with basic systems and tenant amenities.
