140 St Nicholas Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The three-story, four-unit tenement building at 140 St Nicholas Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Mijeong Kim and built in 1931, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, in July 2024, the building received multiple violations for deficiencies in Apartment 2L, including missing/repaired window guards, missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, pest infestation (specifically roaches), and several issues with self-closing doors.
Additionally, there are open Class C violations related to lead paint documentation and notifications, as well as requirements to post important tenant safety information in the building's public areas. The building has shown persistent rodent activity according to recent inspections in March and May 2025, though it did pass a compliance inspection in June 2024. Since 2021, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases.
While a food establishment complaint regarding worker hygiene was filed and closed in June 2024, this pertains to a non-residential portion of the property. A complaints investigation regarding work without a permit occurred in July 2024, though inspectors were unable to gain access to the property for inspection. The building's safety systems, including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, have been a recurring issue, as evidenced by multiple emergency service requests in June 2024 related to these safety devices.
