924 Hart Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 924 Hart Street in Bushwick, owned by Ismael Feliciano, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there was a pattern of heat and hot water system problems in March 2023, with multiple tenant complaints filed over several days, categorized as building-wide emergencies. These complaints were largely duplicates of each other, and while HPD attempted inspections, access was not granted in many cases.

A more recent concern emerged in December 2023, when a sewage odor complaint was reported and resulted in a notice to the property owner to address the issue. The building's maintenance history shows ongoing attention to various safety and comfort issues, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations. In April 2024, there was an A-class violation related to annual bedbug reporting requirements.

September 2023 inspections revealed self-closing door issues on multiple floors, including defects in the entrance door to Apartment 2L and doors in the public hall and boiler room. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug prevention efforts, with no reported infestations in the past four filing periods (2021-2024). Rodent inspections have produced mixed results in recent years, with the most recent inspection in July 2025 showing rat activity, following a January 2025 pass. The building's age (built in 1931) and documented maintenance history suggest ongoing challenges typical of older New York City tenements, with particular attention needed to heating systems and building access for inspections.
