146 Erasmus Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226

146 Erasmus Street is a newly constructed 10-unit, 3-story residential building located in East Flatbush, completed in 2019 and owned by Herman Kaufman. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with water damage, beginning with heavy water flow complaints in late 2021 and most recently a slow leak in 2023-2024, which resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Apartment 3A has experienced multiple documented problems, including ceiling and wall plaster issues, roof leaks, and smoke detector problems, though these violations were certified as corrected by June 2024. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management, with no reported infestations in the past three years (2022-2025), and successfully passed recent rodent inspections. During its construction in 2019-2020, the property faced several regulatory challenges, including two $5,000 fines for failure to file insurance documentation, though these were subsequently resolved.

The building's permit history shows proper documentation and follow-through of construction activities, with various permits issued between June 2019 and 2020. The property's maintenance record also reveals past issues with mold (in late 2021) and various repair needs, particularly regarding wall and ceiling surfaces, though many of these complaints were closed due to inability to gain access for inspection. The building has generally complied with housing maintenance requirements, as evidenced by the regular filing of bedbug reports showing zero infestations and timely responses to violations when inspections are conducted.
