301 81st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11209
301 81st Street is a 6-story, 58-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Gus Sideratos. The building has experienced several recurring issues over the past few years, with the most significant being multiple housing maintenance code violations and service requests in 2024, including problems with plumbing (toilet), paint/plaster (walls and ceilings), and unsanitary conditions (pests).
Of particular concern are two units (D5 and F4) that had notable safety and maintenance issues in 2024, including defective glass panes, bathroom caulking problems, and missing smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector requirements. The building has a concerning pattern of heat/hot water complaints, with similar issues recorded in 2020 and 2023, though in each case, tenants reported that the problems were resolved shortly after the complaints were filed. More critically, in October 2024, violations were issued regarding doors with key-operated locks preventing access to fire escapes in apartments D5 and F4, as well as a broken window pane in apartment D3.
An active violation from July 2024 pertains to the building's facade condition, noting cracks and damaged bricks at multiple locations, and a September 2024 violation relates to failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous condition. The building has also experienced structural stability concerns, with multiple complaints filed in 2019 regarding building shaking/vibration, and a July 2024 ECB violation was issued for facade disrepair. Fortunately, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reports of infestations or re-infestations in any units since 2020.
