1086 Manhattan Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The four-story, seven-unit tenement building at 1086 Manhattan Avenue in Greenpoint, owned by Michal Piernik and constructed in 1930, has experienced various maintenance issues over recent years, though some may have been resolved. Notable incidents in 2020 included multiple emergency complaints for plumbing issues (toilet problems), an electrical wiring concern, and a significant water leak, all of which were officially closed after inspections found no violations.

The building experienced several maintenance violations in 2020-2021, including an open violation from September 2020 regarding necessary repairs to an interior wall in apartment 1R. Multiple housing maintenance code violations were issued in 2020, covering areas such as inadequate lighting at the front entrance, fire escape obstructions from air conditioning units, and various repair needs in apartment 1R including plaster and paint work. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance from 2019 through 2023, with the most recent reports from December 2023 showing zero infested or re-infested units over the previous year.

Inspection records showed one bedbug-related violation in 2021, though all subsequent reports have indicated no infestations. In late 2019, there were complaints about pests and door issues, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. The property has shown periodic maintenance needs, particularly in 2020, when various repairs were documented including issues with doors, plumbing, and building systems, many of which were subsequently addressed and closed through the appropriate channels.
