89 Jewel Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The four-story, eight-unit tenement building at 89 Jewel Street in Greenpoint, owned by Margaret Organ, was constructed in 1928 and has experienced several notable events over recent years. Most significantly, the building faced multiple heat and hot water service interruptions in early 2021, with at least five documented complaints during this period, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) either found conditions had been corrected or could not gain access for inspection.

The building also faced maintenance issues in 2021, particularly during a major inspection in April where several violations were noted, including an open violation regarding roof leaks around the skylight in the public hall, defects in fire retardant materials, and problems with doors needing to be made self-closing. While many of these violations were subsequently closed, several remained open as of the last inspection updates. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to pest control, with five consecutive years (2019-2024) showing no reported bedbug infestations or related issues.

More recently, the property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent two inspections in 2024 and 2025 passing without any noted violations. The building has maintained compliance with various housing maintenance code requirements, including the posting of gas leak procedures and the maintenance of safety features, though some repairs and maintenance issues were identified in 2021 that required attention. The most recent rodent and bedbug inspection reports suggest effective ongoing pest management, with no infestations reported in any of the recent annual filings.
