89 Cornelia Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The three-story, three-unit old law tenement building at 89 Cornelia Street in Bushwick, owned by Abe Green, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. Most concerning are the recurring heat and hot water problems, with three emergency complaints filed in 2024 alone, though HPD was unable to gain access to conduct inspections in the first two incidents.

The building has also faced sanitation challenges, with complaints about mold and pests in September 2023, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. While the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting compliance record from 2021 to 2024, consistently showing zero infested units during each annual filing period, there have been four documented violations between 2021 and 2024 related to the timely filing of annual bedbug reports. The building's history shows generally responsible pest management in recent years, with rodent inspections conducted regularly showing "Passed" results in 2022, 2024, and 2025, though there was an initial finding of "Rat Activity" in October 2019.

The property also experienced an emergency heating system failure in February 2021, which was resolved. The building's maintenance history demonstrates some ongoing challenges with building systems and sanitation, though documented violations have been relatively minimal, with most complaints resulting in "Closed" status without violations. The most recent records indicate some improvement in compliance and maintenance, particularly regarding rodent control and bedbug reporting.
