191 Wyckoff Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The property at 191 Wyckoff Avenue is a three-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Luzviminda Rodriguez. The building has experienced several recurring issues over recent years, with multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage and recycling storage between 2018 and 2022. Three separate instances of heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building were reported in January 2019, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored promptly in these cases.

In October 2018, violations were issued concerning door-related issues, and in July 2018, there were concerns about fire escape safety. A power outage affected the building in July 2020, and a door/window issue was reported in October 2018. As of July 2025, the building has several active violations that require attention, including multiple open violations regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports (2023/2024), and a series of violations related to external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2021 that remain unresolved.

Additional open violations from 2022 involve requirements for posting safety-related notices in the first-story public hall, including carbon monoxide detector requirements, smoke detector requirements, and the proper display of inspection certificates. Recent inspections show mixed results, with the most recent rodent inspection in March 2025 passing, though there was rat activity noted in April 2024. While the building has maintained some compliance with rodent inspections over the years, the persistent pattern of violations related to safety requirements and maintenance inspections suggests ongoing management challenges.
