354 88th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11209
The two-story, three-unit residential building at 354 88th Street in Fort Hamilton, owned by Jimmy Wu and constructed in 1915, is currently facing several significant code compliance issues. Most notably, there are active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from October 2024 related to unauthorized use of the property for transient purposes, including illegal hotel rooms. These violations indicate the property has been improperly converted from its legally approved Class A multiple dwelling status, with specific concerns about insufficient means of egress, missing automatic sprinkler systems, and absent fire alarm systems in unit 2R.
The building owner currently faces penalties totaling $10,250 for these violations. In addition to the ongoing ECB issues, the property has a history of bedbug reporting violations. Between 2021 and 2024, there were multiple citations for failing to submit the required annual bedbug reports, though the most recent filings (in 2024) indicate zero infested or re-infested units since 2019.
While the bedbug reporting violations have been resolved with proper filings showing no current infestations, the more concerning active ECB violations represent substantial safety and compliance issues for the building. The building's recent complaint history includes a 2024 report of illegal hotel rooms, which led to an Oath Violation being served. As of May 2025, there is also an active special operations compliance inspection complaint under review.
