250 Maple Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225

The 26-unit, four-story New Law Tenement building at 250 Maple Street in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Augustine Cadore, has a documented history of maintenance and safety concerns since 2019. Most recently, in March 2023, there were multiple complaints including plumbing issues (sink and shower), window problems, electrical outlet concerns, and mold, with violations issued for the window and electrical issues.

Prior to that, the building experienced various maintenance challenges including a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building in October 2019, multiple unsanitary conditions including mold and pests in July 2022, and various plumbing issues. The property has several open violations as of 2023, including failure to file external low-pressure inspections for multiple years (2019-2021) and issues with public hall maintenance noted during a July 2023 inspection.

A significant cluster of violations was documented in Apartment 3C in March 2023, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, wall and ceiling maintenance issues, and reports of a mouse infestation, all of which were subsequently addressed and closed by mid-2023. The building's management has maintained records showing no bedbug infestations during the most recent reporting period from November 2022 to October 2023, with the most recent report in July 2024 indicating zero infested units and no eradication or re-infestation cases. Although the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, most recent violations and complaints appear to have been addressed through the standard regulatory process, with many historical violations having been closed or dismissed.
