556 Wilson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
556 Wilson Avenue is a 3-story, 5-unit residential tenement building located in Bushwick, built in 1912 and currently owned by Robert Jeziorski. The property has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, with the most notable being a cluster of complaints in November 2023 involving safety concerns (including broken window guards and carbon monoxide detector issues), unsanitary conditions (pests and mold), and problems with windows and heating systems. These complaints, while investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, resulted in no violations being issued.
The building's heating system has been a persistent issue, with multiple complaints about heat and hot water in November 2023 and significant Department of Buildings violations related to boiler maintenance in February 2023, including multiple active ECB violations with substantial penalties totaling over $30,000. The property has also experienced recurring pest control challenges, as evidenced by multiple pest-related complaints and rodent activity inspections showing consistent rat activity from 2021 through 2025. The building has faced various maintenance challenges over the past few years, including issues with windows (broken/missing guards, frames, and panes), security systems (intercom issues), and basic infrastructure problems (heat and hot water systems).
While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent records, the building's history shows a pattern of requiring maintenance attention across multiple systems. In terms of building code compliance, there have been violations related to boiler systems, though most historical violations appear to have been resolved. The most recent rodent inspection in March 2025 recorded rat activity, continuing a pattern observed since 2021. While some improvements appear to have been made, including regular bedbug reporting showing no infestations, the building still faces ongoing maintenance challenges that require attention.
