627 Emerald Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208
627 Emerald Street, a 3-unit, 3-story residential building constructed in 2005 in East New York and currently owned by George Wilson, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant concerns centering around pest infestations and unit maintenance. Between 2022 and 2023, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions, including pests (with repeated complaints in 2022-2023 and 2023-2024), mold, and plumbing issues, particularly involving toilet problems that were classified as emergencies.
The most recent inspection in April 2024 revealed several open violations, including requirements to file annual bedbug reports and address an apartment-wide roach infestation in Unit 3, along with various other compliance matters such as repairing the broken bell buzzer/intercom system and addressing visible mold conditions in the bathroom of Unit 3. The building's history also includes some concerning administrative issues, with open violations as of May 2025 related to occupancy without a valid Certificate of Occupancy, which expired in 2007.
A pattern of illegal conversion complaints was noted in 2018 and 2024, though in 2018 no violations were found during inspection. The property has undergone various inspections by the Department of Buildings, with recent activity in 2024-2025 indicating attempts to address these long-standing compliance issues. While rodent inspections in 2012 and 2015 passed, the more recent pest-related complaints suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance requirements.
