264 Linden Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The 16-unit, 4-story building at 264 Linden Boulevard in East Flatbush, owned by Menachem Brody, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most significantly, in early 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding door problems and intercom systems, with at least one door-related violation issued by HPD. The building faced heating and hot water system failures on two occasions in January 2025, though these issues were reportedly resolved quickly. In August 2023, inspections revealed problems with flooring and ceiling conditions, but no violations were issued at that time.

The building's maintenance history shows several concerning patterns. As of May 2024, there was an open violation regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection, and an active elevator-related violation from 2019 concerning uncorrected defects from a 2017 inspection. A notable infestation incident was documented in 2021 when mice were reported in apartment 1C, though this issue was later addressed. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status in annual reports from 2021 through 2025.

Additionally, various safety notice posting violations have been noted, including requirements for carbon monoxide detector information and gas leak procedures. A rodent inspection from 2013 showed initial rat activity, though subsequent inspections resulted in passing grades. The property's 311 service requests and HPD complaints indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with doors and intercom systems. While many recent complaints from 2025 have been resolved or closed, the building continues to have active violations as of 2024, suggesting persistent regulatory compliance issues. The building's age (constructed in 1931) and classification as a "New Law Tenement" may contribute to these ongoing maintenance requirements.
