2601 Farragut Road, Brooklyn, NY 11210

The 31-unit, 4-story building at 2601 Farragut Road in Flatbush, built in 1931 and currently owned by Jeremy Solomon, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. In early 2024, the building faced multiple maintenance concerns including issues with paint/plaster on ceilings, window frames, water leaks, and plumbing problems, though these complaints did not result in violations.

The majority of these maintenance issues were concentrated in Apartment 1F, including problems with ceiling plaster, window mechanisms, and water leaks, with various Housing Maintenance Code violations issued in February 2024 relating to these conditions. A significant incident occurred in 2022 when the building was found to have undergone an unauthorized conversion from 31 to 32 units, with illegal basement modifications including new partitions and bathroom facilities, resulting in two Environmental Control Board violations and financial penalties. The building's maintenance history shows ongoing attention to various infrastructure issues, though recent years have shown improvements in certain areas.

There have been no reported bedbug infestations in the building since 2019, and recent rodent inspections in 2018 and 2019 showed passed results. The property experienced a series of maintenance issues in early 2024 that required multiple inspections and follow-up actions, primarily focused on plumbing, water leaks, and ceiling conditions. While the building's age and history suggest typical urban maintenance challenges, the management has generally addressed violations and compliance issues when identified by regulatory agencies.
