264 Jefferson Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

264 Jefferson Street is a 7-unit, 3-story old law tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Melissa Lusa. The building has experienced recurring issues with water supply and heating systems over the past five years.

Most recently, in early 2025, there were two plumbing-related complaints, one classified as an emergency and another as an immediate emergency, with the latter case requiring multiple follow-up inspections due to lack of access. In February 2020, the building faced significant heating issues, with multiple complaints about inadequate heat and hot water affecting the entire building, though some units were inaccessible for inspection.

One of these complaints resulted in an official violation being issued after HPD's inspection of a different apartment. The building's maintenance record shows no recent bedbug infestations, with the two most recent bedbug filings (March 2025 and January 2019) reporting zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management. While the water supply and heating system issues represent the most significant concerns over this period, particularly notable is the pattern of access issues during inspections, where authorities have been unable to gain entry to verify complaints on multiple occasions, including the 2025 plumbing issue and the 2020 heating complaints.
