533 Meeker Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222
This three-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building at 533 Meeker Avenue in Greenpoint, owned by George Papaconstanionu, has demonstrated several concerning patterns of maintenance issues and violations over recent years. Most pressing is an active rodent infestation problem, with multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing consistent rat activity, though the building has also passed inspections in December 2023 and September 2024. The property has open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2022, 2023, and 2024 related to failure to file annual bedbug reports as required.
The building's boiler maintenance appears to be in serious non-compliance, with multiple active violations from 2018 through 2023 for failure to file required annual inspection reports, with a current penalty of $3,125. The Department of Buildings records show a history of safety-related concerns, particularly regarding egress and fire safety. There have been several complaints and violations related to obstructed exits and fire escapes between 2020 and 2021, including one noted in 2021 concerning an obstructed fire escape ladder.
Multiple inspections have been conducted regarding potentially unauthorized modifications to the building, particularly in 2023 regarding alleged illegal conversions and work without permits, though inspections have either found no violation warranted or access was denied. The building's operator has faced multiple regulatory compliance issues, with various ECB violations issued between 2020 and 2021 for failure to maintain the building in a code-compliant manner, including problems with emergency exits and hallway obstructions. While some past violations have been resolved, including those regarding obstructed exit passageways and egress concerns, many current violations remain active, particularly regarding rodent control and boiler inspection compliance.
