315 East 48th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The property at 315 East 48th Street is a 2-story, 2-unit building constructed in 1950, currently owned by Roger Hercules. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in recent months, with a significant cluster of complaints recorded in October 2024, including problems with electric wiring, plumbing (radiator), window frame, refrigerator, and multiple instances of paint/plaster issues affecting both walls and ceilings.
These complaints were all closed without inspection due to lack of access to the property during the scheduled HPD inspections, though follow-up instructions were provided to the residents. Earlier violations from July 2024 indicate more serious concerns regarding building security and safety, including issues with self-closing doors, illegal locking mechanisms, and a carbon monoxide detector that required repair or replacement in apartment 1F.
The building has also experienced various safety-related concerns in previous years, including historical rodent inspection failures in 2013, though subsequent inspections showed compliance. Notably, recent bedbug reports from 2025 and 2024 show zero infestations during their respective reporting periods, indicating effective pest management. While the building has seen numerous maintenance issues, it's worth noting that many recent complaints were not able to be verified through inspection due to access issues, rather than confirmed violations.
