337 Knickerbocker Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237

337 Knickerbocker Avenue is a 3-story, 4-unit old law tenement building in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Paolo Rizzo. The building has demonstrated consistent bedbug management compliance, with official reports from 2021 through 2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units, though the property has received four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations (2021-2024) for failure to file annual bedbug reports.

The building has two active Department of Buildings violations as of 2023, for failing to file external low-pressure inspections in 2022 and boiler inspections in 2017. The property has experienced multiple complaints regarding unauthorized work in multiple dwelling units, including complaints about plumbing work between late 2022 and early 2023, though all these complaints were found to have no violations warranted at the time of inspection.

There is one instance of rat activity noted during a 2025 inspection, though this was the only such finding among several successful rodent inspections in 2022-2025, suggesting it may have been an isolated occurrence. The building's rodent inspections have generally passed, with consistent compliance shown in other recent inspections. While the property has had some maintenance compliance issues, particularly regarding inspection filings and bedbug reporting, the overall building management has maintained proper eradication procedures for pests when they have occurred, as evidenced by the consistent zero infestation counts in recent years.
