AI summary · updated June 2026

222 Pulaski Street is a 12-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Chesky Engel. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent complaints in early 2024 involving window frame and wall conditions, both of which HPD was unable to inspect despite being classified as non-emergency and emergency issues, respectively. The building has faced multiple plumbing and water-related problems, particularly in September 2023 with heavy flow water leak issues, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. Other notable concerns include electrical wiring issues (March 2023), historical ventilation system problems (2019), and various housing maintenance code violations related to safety and maintenance.

The building's violation history reveals several significant safety concerns, including an outstanding active violation from 2019 regarding the failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report. In 2020, an Environmental Control Board violation was issued for combustible materials in the boiler room area, resulting in a $625 penalty. Multiple inspections have confirmed rat activity in 2023 and 2024, though there were some periods where compliance was achieved. The property has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations over the past several reporting periods (2020-2024). While some violations from 2022 remain unresolved, including issues with vegetation overgrowth, broken concrete treads, and self-closing doors, many older violations related to debris accumulation and fire escape maintenance from 2018 and 2019 have been resolved. The building's recent history shows a pattern of plumbing and water-related issues, along with occasional concerns about electrical systems, though most recent complaints have been closed with no violations issued.
