1462 Bushwick Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

1462 Bushwick Avenue is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 2008, currently owned by Yidel Kohn. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in apartment 1R, with significant problems evident in 2023.

Current open violations from August 2023 include missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, approximately 15 square feet of visible mold in the bathroom, leaky kitchen sink faucets, and an active roach infestation affecting the entire apartment. Previous violations from August 2022 involved similar issues, including multiple instances of water leaks and mold problems, for which violations were issued. The building has demonstrated some inconsistency in maintenance response, as evidenced by several 2021 complaints where inspectors were unable to gain access to inspect reported issues regarding a refrigerator and ceiling problems.

The property has maintained a good track record regarding bedbug and rodent inspections, with no reported infestations since at least 2019 and successful passing of rodent inspections in 2025, 2024, 2022, 2019, 2018, and 2012. However, there have been some infrastructure concerns in the building's vicinity, with a 2020 complaint about building vibrations that was inspected and found to have no violations, and a 2018 report of an alleged illegal conversion that could not be verified due to lack of access. Despite these past issues, the building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with moisture-related problems and pest control, particularly in the most recent inspection periods.
