1361 Greene Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 1361 Greene Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Leib Flohr and constructed in 1931, has experienced several persistent maintenance and sanitary challenges over the past few years. Most notably, there is an open complaint as of June 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage. Between 2022 and 2025, the building has faced multiple issues with rodent activity, with the most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 resulting in a "Passed" status, following several inspections in 2023-2024 that documented rat activity.
The property has also experienced concerns with ventilation systems, wiring issues, and heat/hot water problems, particularly a significant heating system violation affecting Apartment 2R in January 2021. A troubling pattern of mold issues, as evidenced by a May 2024 complaint, suggests ongoing moisture control challenges. The building's maintenance history shows various systems needing attention, including electrical wiring (with multiple inspections in February 2022), heating systems (both building-wide and apartment-specific complaints), and sanitation issues. While there has been a consistent record of bedbug-free status from 2019 through 2024, the building has faced recurring issues with garbage handling and sanitary conditions.
Most recent inspections indicate some progress in pest control compliance, with the latest rodent inspection passing. Historical records from 1997 show previous violations in Apartment 1 regarding various maintenance issues including floors, plaster surfaces, and a pest infestation that were subsequently addressed. Given the age of the building and its varied maintenance history, residents have experienced periodic challenges with basic services and environmental conditions, though recent inspection patterns suggest some improvements in compliance, particularly related to bedbug control and rodent management. The open garbage storage complaint from June 2025 represents the most recent maintenance concern on record.
