289 Cooper Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
289 Cooper Street is a 3-unit, 3-story Class A residential building located in Bushwick, owned by Franklin Rivera and constructed in 2002. The building has experienced several significant violations and maintenance issues over the years, with the most recent concerning bedbug reporting compliance.
Between 2021 and 2024, the property had multiple violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though the most recent bedbug report filed in December 2024 indicated zero infested or eradicated units. Two active Environmental Control Board violations from 2021 remain pending, totaling $12,500 in penalties, related to unauthorized cellar modifications including full-height partition walls, multiple rooms, bathroom facilities, and unauthorized plumbing work. There is also an open building violation from 2018 regarding inadequate exterior entrance lighting, specifically requiring a minimum 100-watt light fixture for safety.
The building has undergone several rodent control measures since 2022, with multiple bait applications and the most recent inspections in April 2025 resulting in "Passed" status, suggesting improved pest management compliance. Historical records show regular bedbug reporting compliance prior to 2021, and no infestations were reported in subsequent filings, indicating potential resolution of previous pest issues. The property also experienced an illegal conversion complaint in 2021, which resulted in a violation being served regarding unauthorized modifications to the cellar level, though this appears to be associated with the previously mentioned ECB violations.
