884 Flushing Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206

884 Flushing Avenue is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building in Bushwick, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by 884 Flushing Realty Inc. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably in 2025 when multiple HPD inspections revealed violations including unsanitary conditions (mold and pests), problematic plumbing (sink and radiator issues), and concerns with windows and cabinets. The building's most recent inspections in 2025 have documented ongoing rat activity, with multiple inspections between 2023-2025 confirming this persistent pest problem, despite bait applications.

There are currently open violations from 2024 regarding apartment 3R, including issues with light fixtures, wooden floor damage, bathroom peeling paint, and a previous roach infestation that was marked as resolved in February 2024. The property has also had multiple historical maintenance challenges, including the need for repairs to public hall walls and tiles identified in 2024 inspections, and previous complaints about heat/hot water systems and plumbing issues that required HPD intervention. The building's history shows a pattern of maintenance difficulties, with multiple complaints about various systems including plumbing (radiator and sink issues), electrical systems, and general building maintenance.

While there have been some successful resolutions to violations, such as the completed work on public hall walls and floors during 2024, many issues remain active or are recurring, as evidenced by recent 311 complaints and inspection findings. The property has maintained a regular schedule of bedbug reporting showing zero infestations since 2019, though this is contrastingly combined with ongoing rodent issues. The building's maintenance record shows some attempts at addressing these problems through various permits issued in late 2019, including work related to alterations and plumbing systems, but compliance with housing codes appears to be an ongoing challenge as evidenced by recent violation issuance in 2025.
