405 East 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218
The three-story, three-unit building at 405 East 2nd Street in Kensington, owned by Mohammad Hossain, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues since 2020. Most notably, in early 2025, the property was found to have rat activity during inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, marking the building's second rodent-related incident this year.
The building has faced multiple violations of housing maintenance codes, including requirements for proper documentation and maintenance of carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and gas leak procedures, along with electrical safety issues such as exposed wiring in the first-story public hall. Three bedbug violation notices were issued between 2021-2023 regarding annual reporting requirements.
The property has a documented history of access problems during inspections, as indicated by multiple "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" and "Access Denied" dispositions on various complaints, including those related to illegal conversions, electrical wiring concerns, and after-hours work allegations. A cluster of violations emerged in June 2020, including issues with fire safety materials, painting requirements, and electrical wiring conditions, many of which were classified as open violations and remain unresolved as of the latest data. While the building's bedbug reporting for 2022-2023 shows zero infested units, the persistent rodent activity and multiple housing maintenance code violations raise ongoing concerns about the property's maintenance and safety conditions.
