223 Bushwick Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206
223 Bushwick Avenue is a five-story, 27-unit residential building constructed in 1920 and owned by Joseph Weinberger. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent concerning a rodent sighting in February 2025 that resulted in health department violations requiring follow-up inspections. Notable ongoing concerns include multiple open violations related to heat and hot water systems from late 2024, and significant violations identified in December 2024 in apartment 10, including water leaks affecting multiple rooms, broken floor surfaces, and issues with carbon monoxide detectors.
The building has a documented history of rodent activity, with inspection records showing repeated bait application between April and June 2025, and earlier activity recorded in 2019 and 2016. The property has undergone various maintenance inspections and work, with several recent Housing Maintenance Code complaints filed in January 2025 addressing issues with mold, lighting, flooring, and electrical systems. Previous years have shown similar patterns of maintenance needs, including multiple inspections in 2023 regarding water leaks, electrical systems, and unsanitary conditions.
The building's management has responded to several Department of Buildings violations, though some were ultimately dismissed, such as failure to file external low-pressure inspections in 2023. Historical records show past concerns about egress blockage (2019) and boiler issues (2018), though these were resolved without penalties. The most recent bedbug reporting period (2023-2024) showed no infestation, and the building has maintained valid permits for various maintenance work, including plumbing and electrical repairs, with the most recent permits issued in 2019 and 2024.
