Augrented Insights Report for 20 Wilson Avenue

20 Wilson Avenue is a 3-story, 5-unit Old Law Tenement built in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Isaac Weiss. The building has a significant history of maintenance issues over the past several years, with particular concerns about water-related problems being most prominent. From 2022 to 2023, multiple complaints were registered regarding water leaks, including heavy flow and slow leaks, affecting various areas of the building.

There were also recurring issues with mold, particularly in 2022-2023, and problems with heat and hot water in late 2022. More recent concerns include a heat/hot water complaint in January 2025 that was investigated but did not violate housing laws. The building has faced several critical violations and enforcement actions related to its occupancy status. A Certificate of Occupancy complaint in late 2024 resulted in an Oath Violation being served in May 2025, and there is currently an active complaint regarding possible illegal conversion from November 2024.

Previous illegal conversion complaints from 2020-2022 were addressed with Oath Violations being served. In 2023, multiple violations were issued regarding building safety, including issues with self-closing doors, carbon monoxide detector functionality, and a roach infestation in Apartment 1B. However, rodent inspections conducted consistently from 2020 to 2025 have mostly passed, with only one instance of rat activity noted in August 2020. While the building has maintained compliance with annual rodent inspections since 2020 and has had no reported bedbug infestations in the past five years, the recurring issues with water leaks, mold, and heating systems suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
