2411 East 3rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The 70-unit, 6-story residential building at 2411 East 3rd Street in Gravesend, owned by Margaret Brunn, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most concerning are ongoing violations related to fire safety equipment, with multiple open violations from late 2024 in apartment 2D for missing or defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building has also faced significant plumbing issues in 2025, with multiple reports of water leaks (both slow and heavy flow) and unsanitary conditions, including sewage problems.

Recent complaints indicate continuing challenges with indoor air quality, including a current smoking/vaping complaint from June 2025. The building's history reveals recurring maintenance problems, including multiple instances of bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2024, with the most recent incidents affecting two units in 2023-2024. Elevator and safety concerns have been prominent, with multiple complaints about the single elevator device between 2020 and 2022, though inspections typically found no violations or resulted in Oath violations being served.

The property has also faced issues with mold (2025), paint/plaster conditions, and various building systems requiring attention. While the building passed rodent inspections in 2015, there have been periodic issues with building systems and safety equipment, including recent complaints about interior conditions such as chemical odors and air quality problems. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive maintenance, with multiple complaints requiring inspection and violation issuance in recent years, particularly during 2024-2025.
