253 Irving Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
253 Irving Avenue, a 4-unit, 3-story brick building built in 1931 in Bushwick, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there was a cluster of electrical problems in June 2024, with multiple reports of power outages and lighting failures, though inspections generally found no violations or confirmed the problems had been resolved.
The building has open violations from a September 2023 inspection that require attention, including issues with a defective ventilation system, electrical service problems, and pest infestations in apartment 3A, as well as maintenance concerns in common areas such as stairs and doors on the 4th story. The property has documented rat activity in 2022 and 2025, with varying results in rodent inspections between 2022-2025.
Previous heating and hot water issues were reported in January 2024, though these appear to have been resolved relatively quickly. The building underwent some permit activity between 2019-2021, including electrical and plumbing work, though the specific nature of these improvements is not detailed in the records. While there have been multiple pest and rodent inspection failures, particularly in 2022, recent inspections have shown improvements in overall pest management, and the building's bedbug reporting history from 2021-2023 shows no documented infestations during those periods.
