556 Hart Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 556 Hart Street in Bushwick, owned by Dennis Bonilla and constructed in 2004, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges over the past several years. The most pressing issues involve recurring heat and hot water problems, with multiple emergency complaints between 2021 and 2023, including recent incidents in May 2023 and December 2022, though these were reportedly resolved.
More concerning is an open violation from 2023 requiring the filing of annual bedbug reports, along with additional ongoing violations related to safety systems including smoke detectors and carbon monoxide devices that were documented in 2021 inspections. The building has also faced sanitation issues, as evidenced by multiple pest-related complaints in 2025, though these were classified as non-emergency. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing either rat activity or requiring bait applications.
Additional maintenance issues have been identified through various housing maintenance code complaints, including problems with electric/gas ranges and bathtub/shower facilities in mid-2025. While some individual apartment-related complaints have been promptly addressed, the building has experienced consistent issues with building-wide systems, particularly heating and hot water, which appear to be a recurring theme in the complaint history. The most recent complaints from mid-2025 suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, though these have been classified as non-emergency.
