220 Suydam Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The 3-story, 6-unit residential building at 220 Suydam Street in Bushwick, owned by Kari Horowitz, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there was a building-wide heat and hot water outage in October 2024, though service was restored during the HPD inspection. The building has persistent rodent problems, with multiple inspections in 2023, 2024, and 2025 consistently showing rat activity.
There are active violations related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2019, 2020, and 2022. Apartment 3R has documented issues including window locks and water leak problems, while 2L previously had issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though some violations have been certified as closed. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of various issues over the years, including problems with paint/plaster in multiple years (most recently in 2024), window frame repairs needed in 2024, and appliance concerns in 2019.
There were also violations in 2019 related to window guards and roach infestation in Apartment 3R. While the bedbug reports from 2021 to present show no infestations, the building's overall condition requires attention to recurring maintenance issues. Recent inspections continue to indicate rodent activity, with compliance inspections in 2023 through 2025 finding ongoing problems.
