207 Central Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

207 Central Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Charles Solano. The building has experienced several notable system issues over recent years, most significantly in January 2019 when there was a heating and hot water outage that was promptly addressed.

There appears to have been a recurring issue with bedbug reporting compliance, with three HMC violations (in 2021, 2022, and 2023) issued for failure to file the annual bedbug report, though the most recent filings (2024/2023) show no infested units reported. While there was an electrical wiring complaint in 2018, this was investigated and found to have no warranted violations. The building's rodent inspection history shows a mixed pattern, with some inspections in 2022 and 2023 indicating rat activity (April 2022 and October 2023), though many subsequent inspections have passed, including most recently in April 2025.

The property has maintained an active communication line with HPD, having responded promptly to complaints and addressed various maintenance requirements, though the heating system incident and bedbug report violations suggest some historical challenges with building systems and compliance. The regularity of inspections and reporting, particularly for rodent activity and bedbug reporting, indicates an active monitoring process, though the initial violations and service requests from 2019 highlight some past concerns with building maintenance response times. This summary is based on the most recent data available through October 2023 and should be considered in the context of ongoing building management and maintenance practices.
