539 Evergreen Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The three-unit residential building at 539 Evergreen Avenue in Bushwick, currently owned by Oz Shemesh, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most notable cluster of problems occurring in November 2022. During this period, the building faced multiple emergency complaints including heat and hot water problems (affecting multiple apartments), along with various unsanitary conditions related to sewage, mold, and pests.
All of these complaints were eventually resolved, according to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building's history shows two annual violations regarding the failure to file bedbug reports, one in 2021 and another in 2022, though subsequent filings from 2022 through early 2025 show no infested units or related issues, indicating successful compliance with bedbug reporting requirements. The property's maintenance record has shown improvement in recent years, with no reported bedbug or pest infestations since late 2022, and the building has consistently passed rodent inspections conducted in 2012, 2015, 2022, and most recently in 2024.
While the November 2022 events represented a concerning pattern of maintenance issues, the absence of similar recent complaints and the successful resolution of the previous problems suggest a period of stabilization. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2021 to 2025 shows consistent compliance with HPD requirements, with all reports indicating zero infested units during their respective reporting periods. The most recent housing maintenance inspection in April 2025 passed, continuing the trend of improving maintenance since the 2022 issues.
