221 Kingsland Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The 6-unit, 4-story building at 221 Kingsland Avenue in Greenpoint, owned by Grzegorz Poniatowski, has had several notable incidents since its construction in 2006. Most recently, in 2021, there was a DOHMH complaint about unmaintained standing water in a swimming pool, though inspectors were unable to access the property for verification.

A bedbug reporting violation was issued in April 2021 regarding an untimely annual report filing. The building experienced significant regulatory scrutiny in June 2019, with two complaints about illegal hotel rooms in residential buildings - one resulting in an "Oath Violation Served" disposition. This triggered two Environmental Control Board violations for failure to comply with the Commissioner's order to file certificates of correction, though one of these was later resolved, while the other remains active with an associated penalty of $625.

Encouragingly, the building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status during the past five reporting periods from 2019 to the present (July 2025). The bedbug reports, submitted annually between 2021 and 2024, show zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units. Despite the various violations and complaints over the years, particularly in 2019 and 2021, the building has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and has resolved or addressed multiple regulatory issues, though there remains one active ECB violation related to a 2019 citation.
