1352 Bushwick Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

1352 Bushwick Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Janetta Walker. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, with particular concerns regarding heat, plumbing, and pest infestations. Most notably, in early 2024, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints requiring emergency responses, with inspections resulting in violations for inadequate heating in the apartment and problems with the heating system access and maintenance.

The building has also faced ongoing plumbing issues, particularly affecting sinks, with violations documented in both 2023 and 2024. Pest control appears to be an ongoing challenge, with violations for both roach and mice infestations noted in 2024 in the third-floor apartment, following earlier pest-related complaints in 2023. Additional building concerns documented in recent years include water leak issues (2023), and various maintenance needs such as wall repairs and self-closing door functionality in both 2023 and 2024.

While the building's rodent inspections have consistently passed since 2012, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 showing compliance, the property currently has several open violations as of the latest available data, including issues related to heating, pest control, and door mechanisms. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has conducted multiple inspections of the property, with varying outcomes including violations and some complaints being closed without violations. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and environment, particularly in the areas of heating and pest control, though rodent control appears to have improved based on recent inspection passes.
