254 East 28th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The four-story, 10-unit residential building at 254 East 28th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Solomon Schwimmer, was completed in 2019 and has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues since its construction. Most recently, in August 2024, there was a heat/hot water emergency complaint that required HPD intervention, though no violations were found. The building has undergone multiple health inspections, including a drinking water safety investigation in 2022 and a rodent inspection in 2023, both of which resulted in no violations.

Between 2021 and 2024, there were several smoking violation complaints, all of which were addressed and closed. During the construction period from late 2018 to early 2020, the building faced multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and violations, including concerns about construction safety, housekeeping, and pedestrian access. Three ECB violations were issued in September 2019 related to inadequate housekeeping and failure to safeguard persons and property, with penalties totaling $3,125.

The building's bedbug reporting record from 2019 to present shows no infestations, with all annual reports indicating zero affected units. While there have been various complaints filed through 311 and other agencies, most have been resolved without violations being issued. The building's permit history shows proper filing and issuance of various construction permits between late 2018 and mid-2019, with work primarily related to new building construction and associated systems installation.
