19 Linden Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The 6-unit, 2-story building at 19 Linden Street in Bushwick, owned by Violet Russell, has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints filed between 2018 and 2024 regarding inadequate heating throughout the building. The most recent complaint in January 2024 was closed due to inspectors being unable to gain access to units. The building has also faced several maintenance challenges, including door/window issues (2019-2021), safety concerns with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors (2021), and various violations related to general maintenance and repairs.
A notable cluster of complaints in September 2018 involved violations for mold, electrical issues, and intercom problems, resulting in violations being issued. The building currently has open violations regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports from 2021-2024, though some past maintenance issues appear to have been addressed. Apartment 4, located on the first story north side, had specific violations noted in 2018 requiring repairs to plastered surfaces, paint requirements, and smoke detector issues.
The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections between 2020 and 2025, with the most recent three inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing "Passed" results, though there was one instance of "Rat Activity" noted in March 2024. An illegal conversion complaint was filed in December 2019, but inspectors were unable to gain access during their inspection attempts. The building's maintenance history suggests persistent challenges with basic services and building systems, though recent rodent inspections indicate improved conditions in that regard.
