284 Berriman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

284 Berriman Street is a 2-family, 2-story residential building located in East New York, built in 1930 and currently owned by Dian Anderson-Morrison. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2024-2025, with ten documented complaints between January 2024 and April 2025, four of which were building-wide problems and six specific to individual apartments. While many of these complaints were eventually resolved, several required repeated reporting, and HPD inspectors were unable to gain access to verify conditions in multiple instances.

The building has also had plumbing issues, particularly with shower/bathtub facilities in mid-2024, and a slow water leak problem reported in April 2024. In terms of maintenance violations, Apartment 2 received citations in March 2024 for both heat supply and pest infestations (roaches and mice), though the mice violation was listed as "open" with no certification date. Apartment 1, inspected in October 2019, had multiple documented issues including water leaks, ceiling damage, and plaster/paint problems in various rooms and the bathroom.

This unit also experienced water leak problems in late 2019 that required multiple repairs. The building's rodent inspections from 2012 and 2017 showed compliance, passing both initial inspections. While some historical issues have been resolved, the recent pattern of heating system complaints and ongoing maintenance violations suggest persistent infrastructure challenges at the property.
