283 Wyckoff Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The three-story, four-unit tenement building at 283 Wyckoff Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Adriana Cuefo and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most recently, in January 2025, there was a heat/hot water complaint that HPD inspected but found did not violate housing laws. The building has a documented history of rodent and pest problems, with multiple complaints between 2018 and 2024, including rat activity recorded in March 2025.

Three class A bedbug violation notices were issued between 2021 and 2024 regarding the failure to file annual reports, though recent filings (2023-2025) indicate no current infestations. The building has experienced recurring heat/hot water issues, with emergency complaints filed in 2018 and most recently in January 2025. Structural concerns have been documented, particularly in 2020, when violations were noted regarding step cracks at the rear and left side brick walls, with penalties issued but later resolved.

The building has undergone several inspections for various issues, including building shaking complaints in 2020 and boiler problems in 2018, though most inspections resulted in no violations being found. Recent permit activity shows ongoing maintenance work, with permits issued in 2019, 2020, 2021, and most recently in July 2023. The property has maintained regular inspections for rodent activity, passing most inspections but showing occasional rat activity in 2018 and most recently in March 2025. While the building has experienced these recurring maintenance issues, recent records suggest improved compliance with pest reporting requirements and fewer documented violations compared to previous years.
