1487 Broadway, Brooklyn, NY 11221
1487 Broadway is a 4-story, 17-unit residential building constructed in 1915 in Bushwick, currently owned by Alex Rivera. The building has experienced several significant issues in recent years, most notably in 2024, when violations were documented in Apartment 2C for unsanitary conditions involving mold and ceiling damage, with some issues classified as emergencies.
The building has faced challenges related to food establishment inspections, with complaints about rodents and insects in late 2024, and most recently in April 2025 regarding facility construction. Between 2018 and 2019, serious concerns were documented regarding illegal hotel room use, resulting in multiple Environmental Control Board violations totaling $6,000 in penalties, though these appear to have been resolved.
The property has maintained a relatively clean record in recent years regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years, and successful rodent inspections passed in 2022, 2024, and most recently in April 2025. Previous violations related to building security and safety were addressed, including problems with self-closing doors and illegal fastenings on entrances, which were resolved between 2018 and 2019. The building's recent service requests and inspections suggest ongoing attention to maintenance and regulatory compliance, with the most recent food establishment inspections being the only current open issues as of 2025.
