485 Vandalia Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11239
Located at 485 Vandalia Avenue in East New York, this 8-unit, 4-story residential building was constructed in 2018 and is currently owned by Nicholas Lembo. The property has experienced recurring issues with mold, particularly evident in 2024 with multiple emergency complaints filed between January and July of that year, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) typically found no violations, except for September 2023 and August 2023 when violations were issued.
Apartment 2A has been the primary focus of maintenance concerns, experiencing various issues including mold (with violations in 2023-2024), roaches (August 2024), and problems with the ventilation system and electrical fixtures (both October 2024). Additionally, there are ongoing flooring concerns with multiple complaints filed in September 2023 that remain in progress as of October 2023. The building's maintenance history shows some positive developments, with all noted violations having been addressed and certified as closed by December 2024, including the resolution of mold issues and pest infestations in apartment 2A.
The property maintains an active bedbug reporting record showing zero incidents of infestation or re-infestation from 2020 through 2025. During construction in 2018, there were two significant safety violations related to construction site safety and equipment measures, resulting in penalties totaling $7,500, but these were promptly resolved. The building's recent history (2023-2024) suggests recurring moisture-related issues that have required multiple interventions, though the frequency of mold-related complaints appears to have decreased in 2025, with the last service request for mold dated July 2024 and subsequent inspections finding no ongoing violations.
