260 Jefferson Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
260 Jefferson Street is a three-story, six-unit Old Law tenement building located in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Jacob Gluck. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues over the past several years, with multiple emergency complaints made between 2019 and 2025, including a recent heat/hot water complaint in February 2025 that was temporarily resolved.
More concerning is the building's current pest situation, with active rat activity documented between 2025-01-19 and 2025-07-10, including multiple bait applications and inspections showing persistent rodent problems despite intervention. There are also significant open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements from 2023-03-23 and 2024-04-10 that remain unresolved, and violations related to external low-pressure inspections from multiple years (2018-2021) that were not filed as required. The building's safety systems have faced various issues, including an April 2021 violation regarding access to the heating system, a locked door obstructing fire escape access in apartment 1L, and multiple complaints about inconsistent hot water availability in apartment 1R.
Historical records show some improvements, as earlier violations for smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector issues in 2022 were certified as corrected. The property has also undergone several rodent inspections in 2025, with consistent evidence of rat activity and multiple bait applications, indicating an ongoing pest management challenge. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of heating system problems, with emergency complaints continuing into 2025, despite some repairs being documented as completed.
