1228 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The two-unit residential building at 1228 Hancock Street in Bushwick, owned by Matthew Ahdoot, is a 2-story structure built in 1899 that has undergone conversion to a Class A dwelling. The property has experienced relatively few significant issues over the past several years, with the most recent concern being a plumbing water supply complaint in March 2025 that required HPD intervention, though the inspection could not be completed.

Prior to this, there was a rat sighting complaint in October 2021, but the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's subsequent inspection found no violations. Notably, the building has maintained an impressive record regarding bedbug issues, with no reported infestations or related incidents in the last seven consecutive reporting periods from 2018 through 2024.

The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent one conducted in May 2025, all of which have resulted in passing grades, indicating effective pest management practices. Between 2018 and 2025, the building has demonstrated consistent compliance with housing maintenance code requirements, as evidenced by multiple inspection passes, though the March 2025 plumbing complaint represents a recent maintenance issue that would require follow-up. While the building's age (126 years) is notable, the relatively few complaints on record and regular passing inspections suggest generally stable maintenance practices, though the inability to complete the most recent HPD inspection warrants attention to ensure proper follow-up.
