288 Maple Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225
288 Maple Street is a 6-story, 36-unit residential building constructed in 1938 in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, currently owned by Michael Niamonitakis. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout April 2025, with multiple tenant complaints (including several filed as emergencies) showing a pattern of inadequate heating system performance affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.
These complaints led to HPD inspections and some violations being issued, though many complaints were subsequently closed with conditions reported as corrected or improved. The building has also faced various maintenance and safety concerns, including work without permits (2024), elevator service issues (multiple complaints from 2021-2025), and construction-related violations with partial stop work orders issued in April 2025. Recent inspections in 2023-2024 identified several housing maintenance code violations in apartments 1A and 2E, including lead paint hazards, general maintenance issues, and problems requiring various repairs and corrections.
The property's environmental health record is mixed but shows some positive trends: there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years (2022-2025), and a compliance inspection in February 2024 found no active rodent issues, though previous inspections in 2020 and 2019 had shown rat activity requiring bait application. The building has maintained historical records of addressing violations and complying with inspections, as evidenced by multiple "Closed" status updates for various maintenance code violations. Additionally, the property has experienced periodic issues with energy efficiency compliance, including violations for failing to display energy efficiency scores and missing benchmarking reports, though these violations have typically been dismissed or resolved upon review.
