3100 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The 2-story, 108-unit building at 3100 Atlantic Avenue, owned by David Levitan and constructed in 1950, has experienced persistent maintenance issues, particularly around heating and water systems. Most recently, in February 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints, with some complaints being reported as resolved, while others resulted in HPD inspections being unable to gain access. The building has documented housing maintenance code violations from October 2024 in Apartment 1, including issues with mold, plumbing fixtures, kitchen cabinets, and plaster surfaces. Additional problems reported during 2024-2025 included plumbing issues, pest problems, and improper repairs of various surfaces.

The property has a history of heat and hot water complaints, with documented emergencies in both 2024 and 2025. There were multiple incidents of inspection access issues, where HPD could not enter apartments to verify complaints. The building has been subject to bedbug infestations in 2022-2023 (with one unit reporting infestation in 2023) and passed rodent inspections in September 2023 and February 2023. Environmental Control Board violations from 2019 indicated water damage issues, though these were resolved.

Notably, there are currently eight open violations on record from October 2024, primarily affecting Apartment 1, while the second unit (Apartment 2) has documented violations from August 2024 regarding bathroom and kitchen repairs. The building's history shows some administrative issues, including a 2022 complaint about illegal conversion, though access was not gained for inspection. There is also an active Department of Buildings violation related to the failure to file an annual boiler inspection report from 2019. The property has had multiple emergency repair permits issued between 2018 and 2021 for various maintenance work, suggesting ongoing building system maintenance needs.
