923 Broadway, Brooklyn, NY 11206

923 Broadway is a 5-story, 10-unit residential building located in Bushwick, completed in 2022 and owned by Sam Berkowitz. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly related to electrical systems, water infrastructure, and structural elements.

Most recently, in September 2024, the building suffered an electrical power outage, along with heavy water flow issues and ceiling problems, which resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The fall of 2023 also saw multiple emergencies requiring attention, including concerns with electrical wiring, plumbing water supply, and flooring, all of which resulted in closed complaints though some conditions remained open for verification. Earlier, in February 2024, there were issues with unsanitary garbage/recycling storage that were still pending resolution verification at the time of inspection.

The building underwent multiple inspections during its construction and initial occupancy period from 2020 to 2022, with several Construction Safety Compliance (CSC) actions requiring attention and oath violations being served between June and December 2022. While the building has had numerous maintenance issues, it's worth noting that there have been no reported bedbug infestations in any unit since the building's completion, according to the bedbug reporting system, with the most recent filings showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units between November 2022 and October 2025. The building's history demonstrates persistent infrastructure challenges, particularly with essential systems like electricity and plumbing, while maintaining a record of successful bedbug prevention measures.
