Is 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 14 open Class C, with 1 certification filed and 8 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends September 27, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 25 Class C violations: 24 by the original certify-by date, 1 after it. HPD now marks 2 of them False Certification. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Does 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn have active DOB violations?

Yes. 4 active DOB violations, most of them for low-pressure boilers. The newest was issued April 25, 2023. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

Are any DOB work permits in effect at 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn?

Yes. 1 DOB work permit in effect, for Sidewalk Shed work, issued July 9, 2026. A permit in effect allows the work it names. It does not mean the work has started or finished, or that it fixes any violation on this page.

Does 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is temporary, renewed September 2, 2026. A certificate of occupancy says how a building may be used and occupied. A temporary one lets people move in while work finishes and has to be renewed until DOB issues the final one. DOB's records here start in July 2012, so an older certificate may not show.

When was the boiler at 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn last inspected?

It has 3 boilers, all inspected in 2026, the latest on January 14. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.

When did 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn last file its bedbug report?

Is 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn covered by Local Law 97?

Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered under Article 321, the path for certain affordable housing and houses of worship (DOB's list, March 1, 2026). Local Law 97 sets greenhouse gas limits for most New York City buildings over 25,000 square feet, and DOB's covered buildings list says which path each building is on. The list reflects DOB's records, which owners can ask DOB to correct. This page never estimates a penalty or says whether a building complies.

When was 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn built?

The city's record gives 1974 as the year 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator apartment building with 4 floors.

How many apartments does 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 107 residential units at 349 Chester Street, Brooklyn. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on DOB violations, DOB NOW work permits, DOB certificates of occupancy, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 27, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus DOB violations, DOB NOW work permits, DOB certificates of occupancy, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
