394 East 98th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212
394 East 98th Street is a 2-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Leopold Illidge and located in Brownsville. The building has a documented history of moisture-related issues, with multiple complaints about mold and unsanitary conditions recorded between December 2020 and March 2021, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) did not result in any violations.
The property has experienced recurring hot water and heating outages during the winter months of 2020-2021, with several complaints recorded between December 2020 and March 2021 where HPD was unable to gain access for inspection. More recent records show the building has maintained a bedbug-free status as per the 2024 report, with no infested units reported between November 2022 and October 2023.
However, there are still some open maintenance issues from 2020, including a broken linoleum floor in the foyer and various window and door repair needs in apartment 2F, as well as concerns about encumbrances obstructing fire escape egress. The building has had consistent annual bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2024, with no reported infestations during this period. The most recent inspection in April 2024 resulted in a violation notice for not filing the annual bedbug report, though this appears to be an administrative oversight given the unit's recent clean history.
