2330 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-story, eight-unit building at 2330 Bedford Avenue in Flatbush, constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Richard Andrews, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, particularly regarding heating systems. Most recently, in January 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints about building-wide heat and hot water issues, though one of these complaints was determined to be a duplicate of an existing issue, and following an inspection, HPD found no violations of housing laws.

The building has a documented pattern of heating problems, with similar complaints recorded in 2018, though access for inspection was not granted in that instance. More concerning are the open violation notices from October 2019, which indicate safety-related issues including a metal fence obstructing a fire escape drop ladder, and failure to post proper gas leak procedures. The property has been subject to several safety and maintenance violations over the years, particularly during 2019 inspections which revealed multiple issues in apartments 2F and 2R, including missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, a defective intercom system, and issues with self-closing doors.

While there were bedbug report violations in 2021-2023, the most recent report from December 2023 shows no infested or re-infested units during the October 2022-2023 reporting period. The building has also faced rodent challenges, with multiple rat activity reports and bait applications recorded between 2017 and 2019, though a compliance inspection in December 2019 indicated no current issues. The property has qualified as a "New Law Tenement" under NYC classification, which suggests certain additional regulatory requirements may apply.
