1464 Bushwick Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207

1464 Bushwick Avenue, a five-story apartment building constructed in 2008 and owned by Yidel Kohn, has experienced recurring infrastructure issues, particularly with water systems and heating. Most recently, in May 2024, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding heat/hot water and plumbing problems, though HPD was unable to access all affected apartments for inspections.

The building has documented seven water-related incidents since 2022, including both heavy flow and slow leaks, suggesting ongoing plumbing challenges. Additionally, there was a significant maintenance issue in 2022 involving inadequate paint/plaster work that resulted in violations, specifically in Apartment 4R. The building's safety systems have also shown areas requiring attention; in December 2022, violations were issued regarding missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 4R.

Historical records indicate previous maintenance concerns, including a 2021 complaint about failure to maintain building systems, though inspectors could not gain access during their final attempt. However, some positive indicators include the building's passing rodent inspections in 2022, 2024, and most recently in May 2025, along with consistent reporting showing no bedbug infestations in recent years, with the latest filings showing zero affected units for the 2023-2024 period. While the building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly related to water systems and heating, it has maintained basic pest control standards and shown some improvements in addressing various infrastructure problems over time.
