53 Troutman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

53 Troutman Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building in Bushwick, owned by Isack Katz and constructed in 1915 as an Old Law Tenement. The building's recent history shows ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with appliances and safety systems; most notably, there were two failed inspection attempts in 2025 regarding a refrigerator issue and smoke detector safety, where inspectors were unable to gain access and the complaints were subsequently closed due to lack of response.

The building has consistently maintained its rodent-free status, passing nine consecutive inspections between 2019 and 2025, indicating effective pest management practices. The property's violation history shows two notable Administrative violations in 2021 and 2023 regarding failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these were ultimately resolved.

Importantly, the building's recent bedbug reporting records from late 2024 and throughout 2025 indicate no infestation issues, with zero units reported as infested or requiring eradication during the past three reporting periods. The most recent housing maintenance code complaints and violations suggest ongoing communication challenges between residents and housing authorities, particularly regarding access for inspections and timely responses to complaints, though these issues are currently in the process of resolution through appropriate channels.
