1097 Jefferson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
1097 Jefferson Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential tenement building located in Bushwick and constructed in 1905, currently owned by Carlos Rodriguez. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of violations occurring during a November 2024 inspection, which revealed open violations including a defective bathroom door in Apartment 2 and a loose wall light fixture in the third-story public hall.
These followed a series of notable violations throughout 2023, including multiple issues with self-closing doors at building entrances and security concerns in Apartment 2 regarding carbon monoxide detection equipment. The building has maintained an active rodent management program, with bait application records showing ongoing monitoring and maintenance from 2022 through 2025, culminating in a successful "Passed" inspection in April 2025.
The property has submitted bedbug reports for the periods 2019-2020 and 2022-2023, with no reported infestations in any units during either period. Earlier building history shows some environmental issues, including a failed rodent inspection in August 2022, but these appear to have been addressed through ongoing treatment and inspections. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, particularly regarding door security and common area maintenance, recent rodent management success and lack of recorded bedbug incidents in the past two reporting periods suggest some improvement in overall building conditions.
