183 Jefferson Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

183 Jefferson Street is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Luis Navarro. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024-2025, with multiple complaints filed (both building-wide and apartment-specific) between December 2024 and March 2025. These heating system problems prompted several emergency responses from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though access for inspections was often not granted.

The building also faced electrical issues in January 2025, including power outages that resulted in HPD violations. The building's maintenance history reveals several safety and maintenance concerns. In November 2024, HPD issued multiple Class C violations, including problems with door latches, self-closing doors, and access to heating system controls.

An active violation from the Department of Buildings, dating to April 2023, indicates a failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection. While there have been some rodent activity reports between 2022 and 2025, most recent inspections in early 2025 have passed, suggesting improved conditions. The bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2025 shows no infestations documented by the landlord, with all filing periods reflecting zero infested units. While the property has experienced multiple maintenance issues, many violations appear to be resolved through compliance inspections, though the ongoing heating system problems represent a significant and recurring concern for residents.
