371 East 23rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226

371 East 23rd Street is a three-story, two-unit residential building located in Flatbush, Brooklyn, owned by Alexandra Meskin and dating back to 1905. The building has experienced recurring issues with basic services, particularly heat and hot water, with two notable incidents reported in early 2019 – one affecting the entire building and another specific to individual apartments.

While in both cases heat and hot water were reportedly restored by the time of HPD's response, these service interruptions raise concerns about the building's maintenance systems. More recently, the building has faced ongoing compliance challenges regarding bedbug reporting, with four consecutive open violations between 2021 and 2024 related to the failure to file required annual bedbug reports as per HPD regulations. This pattern of non-compliance suggests possible oversight or administrative issues.

The building's rodent inspection history from 2010-2011 shows multiple failures during that period, though there was one passing inspection in August 2010. While these historical pest control issues appear to be from some time ago, they indicate that both rodent and insect management has been a recurring concern for this property. The most recent significant inspections and violations primarily relate to bedbug reporting requirements rather than active pest infestations or major maintenance issues, suggesting some improvement in overall building conditions though with continuing regulatory non-compliance.
