1095 Madison Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The two-story, two-unit building at 1095 Madison Street in Bushwick, built in 1910 and currently owned by Chen Avni, has experienced several recurring issues over recent years, most notably with heat and hot water systems. In April 2024, the building saw inspections and violations related to heat and hot water problems, including a Class C violation specifically for inadequate hot water in the first-floor apartment, as well as access issues to the heating system. These followed a similar emergency heat/hot water complaint from late 2019 that could not be investigated due to lack of apartment access.

Additional maintenance issues have included a refrigerator problem in early 2024 that was resolved, and cooking gas concerns in April 2024 that resulted in no violations. The building has also faced administrative matters, including multiple bedbug reporting violations between 2021 and 2024, though recent reports indicate no infestation issues, with the most recent 2024-2025 report showing zero infested or re-infested units. More recent investigations as of 2025 include rodent inspections in April 2025 (which passed), and there are currently active concerns about possible illegal conversion as of May 2025, although the inspector was unable to gain access during the first attempt.

The building's documentation also shows proper rodent control measures in place, with inspections passing consistently since 2012. Permit activity from 2019 suggests some plumbing and electrical work, though specific details about completion are unavailable in the current records. While the building has maintained compliance in many areas, the recurring heat/hot water problems and historical bedbug reporting issues suggest areas requiring ongoing attention, though recent reports indicate improvements in both these categories.
