2675 East 26th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235

Located in Sheepshead Bay, this 2-family house at 2675 East 26th Street, owned by Daniel Rachamim, was constructed in 1970 and operates over two stories. The property has recently come under significant scrutiny, particularly in late 2023, when multiple concerning issues were documented through the Department of Buildings (DOB) system.

These include an active violation as of November 2023, detailing unauthorized construction work across all three levels of the building, including plumbing and electrical work, installation of split A/C units, and the erection of a two-level deck expansion. The violation notice also raised concerns about the cellar being prepped for an illegal apartment, with specific mention of open boxes, loose hanging cables, and work being conducted without proper plans or permits.

Prior to these recent developments, the building's history shows minimal documented issues, with only one 311 service request in 2019 related to rodent conditions, which was closed within a week. Between late October and November 2023, the building experienced additional regulatory scrutiny, including a special operations compliance inspection that resulted in a partial stop work order, and an earlier permit-related complaint that required corrective action in March 2024. These recent events suggest significant ongoing construction activity at the property, occurring without proper permits or approvals, which could potentially impact resident safety and building code compliance.
