192 Jefferson Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206
192 Jefferson Street is a 3-story, 6-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Bushwick and built in 1931, currently owned by Moshe Wilhelm. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, particularly in early 2024, with multiple complaints filed between January and March 2024, prompting several HPD inspections and the issuance of violations. These complaints followed a similar pattern of problems earlier in 2023-2024, including specific hot water issues in apartments 1L and 2R.
The building's maintenance history shows some concern about building system access, with violations documented for locked heating system access in the basement or cellar areas in both 2023 and 2024. Additional historical concerns include a 2023 infestation of mice on the 1st story, though more recent inspections in 2025 have shown compliance with rodent control measures. The building has a documented history of unauthorized modifications, with several Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints between 2018-2025 suggesting possible illegal conversions or modifications, particularly concerning an unauthorized basement bedroom conversion in 2018-2019.
Multiple DOB inspection attempts between 2019-2020 for illegal conversion complaints resulted in access being denied. The property has also faced challenges with emergency violation responses, as evidenced by multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in 2019 related to failure to certify corrections. Recent inspections, including rodent inspections in 2024-2025, have generally shown compliance, though a "Rat Activity" result was recorded in April 2024. The building has maintained a zero bedbug infestation record in recent reporting periods (2021-2024), with only one reported incident in 2020 that was promptly addressed.
