355 East 49th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The 4-unit, 2-story residential building at 355 East 49th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Clavia Campbell, has experienced persistent heating system issues over the past few years, with multiple complaints regarding lack of heat and hot water documented between late 2022 and 2024. The most recent cluster of incidents occurred between February and April 2024, with six separate heat/hot water complaints being reported and requiring HPD intervention, though in most cases, tenants reported that the problems had been resolved by the time of inspection.

The building also has a notable history of hot water temperature violations, with a specific violation issued in February 2024 for Apartment 2R regarding water exceeding 130 degrees Fahrenheit, and a similar violation from 2021 concerning Apartment 1R. Safety concerns were highlighted in 2020 when violations were recorded for defective carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, as well as issues with fire egress in Apartment 1R, though these were subsequently closed. The building's regulatory compliance record shows annual Bedbug Reporting requirements being met in recent filings, with no reported infestations or re-infestations during the 2022-2023 period.

Other noteworthy violations from 2020 included the presence of household items obstructing public hallways on the second story, though these were also closed. The Department of Buildings issued a permit in October 2022, though the specific purpose was not detailed in the available records. The building has maintained its status as a New Law Tenement since its 1930 construction, and while the property has had multiple service calls and violations over the years, most have been addressed through appropriate channels, with no current open violations as of the latest available documents.
