554 Central Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-story, three-unit old law tenement at 554 Central Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Rosa Rodriguez, has experienced several notable incidents over recent years. Most significantly, there was a documented indoor air quality complaint regarding chemical vapors/odors in December 2022, which required a response from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though this issue was officially closed the same day.

The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting requirements, with annual violations issued between 2021 and 2024 for failure to file the necessary reports, though the most recent filing for the period ending October 2023 indicates no infested or re-infested units and zero eradication needs. A complaint regarding work without a permit in November 2021 was inspected the same day and found no violations. The property has shown strong rodent control compliance, passing inspections in 2012, 2015, 2022, 2024, and most recently in April 2025.

The building's records suggest ongoing management of pest-related documentation requirements, with the situation appearing to improve in recent years as indicated by the most recent bedbug report showing no current or past infestation issues. While the indoor air quality complaint in late 2022 represents the only major health and safety concern on record, this issue was addressed promptly through official channels. The building's documented violations primarily relate to administrative requirements rather than structural or maintenance issues, and the property has consistently passed rodent inspections, suggesting effective pest management practices in place.
