374 East 49th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203
The 38-unit, 4-story building at 374 East 49th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Pincus Schwimmer, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges throughout 2025. Most notably, there have been multiple reports of heating and hot water issues, including an emergency complaint in March 2025, though heat and hot water were restored during inspections.
The building has also faced recurrent pest control issues, with multiple rodent activity reports and bait applications throughout 2023, as well as documented bedbug infestations in several units during the 2021-2024 reporting periods, including one bedbug infestation involving two units in 2024. The property has a history of various maintenance and infrastructure issues, including plumbing problems, power outages, and multiple complaints regarding wall and ceiling conditions that resulted in HPD violations.
A December 2024 inspection revealed several violations in Apartment D2, including water leak issues, plaster and paint problems, and pest infestation that required remediation. While some violations were subsequently certified as corrected, including roof repairs and various infrastructure improvements, the building continues to experience maintenance challenges as evidenced by recent 311 complaints in 2025 for paint/plaster issues and electrical problems. The building has also received violations related to energy efficiency reporting requirements between 2019-2023, though these were ultimately dismissed.
