1576 Greene Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The 7-unit, 3-story tenement building at 1576 Greene Avenue in Bushwick, currently owned by Steven Kashanian, has experienced significant maintenance challenges over the past year, most notably during January 2025 when there were multiple heat and hot water outages affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Between January 4-31, 2025, the building faced seven separate emergency heat/hot water complaints, with HPD inspectors confirming restoration of services in some cases but noting access issues in others.
Previous to this, the building underwent several inspections in December 2024 revealing various maintenance issues including potential problems with mold, plumbing (toilet), and various surface conditions (paint/plaster on ceilings, walls, and floors), though these were found not to violate HPD housing laws. More permanent structural concerns were identified in apartment 2R during a December 2024 inspection, resulting in several Class A violations requiring attention to water leaks, damaged plaster surfaces, faulty faucets, carbon monoxide detector issues, and a need for hot water repairs.
The building also has two active Department of Buildings violations related to failure to file external low pressure inspections in 2022 and 2023. Historical data indicates this property has had recurring rodent activity issues, with recent inspections in 2024 showing rat activity, though a March 2025 inspection passed. Notably, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the building since at least 2020, as per the required annual reporting.
