42 Wilson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The three-story, four-unit residential building at 42 Wilson Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Ventura Acevedo, is a 1931 Old Law Tenement property that has undergone several inspections and faced various compliance requirements over the past few years. Most notably, the building has consistently had violations regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024, though the most recent filing period (November 2023 - October 2024) reported no infested or previously infested units.
The Department of Buildings issued an active violation in June 2023 for failure to file the 2021 external low-pressure inspection, though it remains unresolved as of this report. In terms of pest management, the building experienced one rodent-related complaint in August 2022, which was resolved with a passing inspection and only minor violations identified. The property has maintained regular rodent inspections over the years, all of which have yielded passing results dating back to at least 2020.
More recent concerns have emerged regarding construction activity, with multiple complaints in 2025 about work being conducted without permits in occupied multiple dwelling spaces, though inspections were unable to gain access to verify the claims. The building has also seen complaints about illegal after-hours work in February 2025, though this inspection likewise found no violations at the time. Despite these recent complaints, the building's overall record shows consistent compliance with rodent control requirements and recent successful bedbug report filing, though the outstanding DOB violation from 2023 and the pattern of bedbug reporting violations in previous years are notable compliance issues.
