574 Morgan Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The four-story, eight-unit tenement building at 574 Morgan Avenue in Greenpoint, owned by Marek Giernicki, has a documented history of maintenance challenges particularly in recent years. Most notably, there are four active violations as of September 2023 related to the failure to file required annual external low-pressure inspections from 2019-2023, indicating potential safety concerns regarding the building's pressure systems.

Recent electrical safety concerns have also emerged this year, with one complaint in June 2024 regarding defective or exposed wiring, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their final attempt. The building has experienced persistent issues with pest management, most recently documented in a November 2022 rodent sighting that resulted in health department violations.

However, it's worth noting that all bedbug reports filed between 2022 and 2024 indicate zero infested units, suggesting successful management of this particular pest issue. The property has a history of rat activity requiring multiple bait applications in 2011, though subsequent rodent inspections show some improvements, with the most recent January 2023 inspection passing compliance. The building's record shows a consistent pattern of regulatory oversight and inspection activity, with the most pressing concerns currently focusing on required safety inspections that have not been completed as mandated.
