297 Shepherd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208
The two-story, three-unit residential building at 297 Shepherd Avenue in East New York, owned by Omar Campbell, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with particular concern for structural stability. As of March 2025, the building is facing active violations regarding structural compliance, with reports of collapse zone conditions in the rear yard and disrepair of a neighboring CMU wall affecting the property, which has damaged a trampoline and shed.
In March 2025, multiple complaints were filed regarding building stability, adjacent building protection, and debris concerns, leading to a partial vacate order being served. The building underwent a comprehensive inspection on August 26, 2022, revealing various safety-related violations that required attention, including an unresolved issue with a broken baluster in the second-story public hall, defective self-closing doors at both the first-story entrance and third-story apartment (Unit 3), and missing carbon monoxide detector(s) in Unit 3.
While several violations from this inspection were subsequently addressed and certified as corrected by November 2022, including door refitting and various notice posting requirements, the building has continued to grapple with maintenance challenges. Notably, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the building from 2020 through 2024, as evidenced by the annual bedbug reporting requirements, and a rodent inspection from May 2012 resulted in a passing grade, suggesting some historical attention to pest control measures.
