1038 Flushing Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
1038 Flushing Avenue is a 5-unit, 3-story residential tenement building located in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Isaac Weiss. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with multiple water-related problems being the most significant concern. Most notably, in May 2025, there were emergency complaints regarding heavy water leaks, plumbing issues (specifically a basin/sink problem), and flooring concerns, though HPD was unable to complete inspections for these complaints.
The building has a history of water-related problems, with similar issues documented in 2024 including multiple water leak complaints (heavy flow, damp spot, slow leak), and unsanitary conditions including mold. Additional concerns in 2024 included a heating/hot water complaint and various door/window issues, with the HPD unable to gain access for inspections in some cases. The building has shown some improvements in pest management, with bedbug reports showing zero infested units for the past three reporting periods (2021-2024).
However, recent rodent inspections have revealed mixed results, with "rat activity" noted in mid-2023 and early 2024, though the most recent inspections in 2025 have passed. The property has had some structural maintenance issues as evidenced by past violations, including a non-self-closing vestibule door in 2024 (first story), and past complaints regarding unsafe living conditions in the cellar. The building's inspection history includes three "passed" results for rodent inspections in 2025, as well as normal housing maintenance code violations which have been closed following correction of the issues.
