1477 Bushwick Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11207
1477 Bushwick Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1911, currently owned by Quienton Johnson. The building has experienced ongoing maintenance and safety issues, with the most recent concerns including open emergency complaints as of January 2025 regarding electrical lighting problems, and a heating/hot water issue for which HPD could not gain access to inspect. Several significant violations remain open as of September 2024, including requirements to post gas leak procedures, carbon monoxide detector requirements, smoke detector requirements, and housing information guide notices.
The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with unsanitary conditions, including multiple reports of garbage/recycling storage problems between 2022-2023, and water-related issues including damp spots and mold in 2024. While rodent activity was detected in a May 2025 inspection, previous inspections generally showed compliance with health codes. The building has multiple active violations related to external low-pressure inspection filings from 2023 through 2024, indicating possible regulatory compliance issues.
Self-closing door mechanisms in common areas and the 3rd floor have been identified as needing repair, though some related violations from July 2024 have been marked as closed. The property has consistently filed bedbug reports showing zero infested units since 2021, suggesting effective pest management in this regard. While the building has passed several rodent inspections in recent years, the most recent inspection in May 2025 showed rat activity, representing a potential resident concern. The combination of open violations, recent heating and electrical issues, and maintenance history indicates ongoing building management challenges, though there have been some periods of compliance and resolution of specific issues.
