175 Adams Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

175 Adams Street is a 15-story, 1022-unit residential building constructed in 1950 and currently owned by Maureen Krug. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a pattern of pest infestations, including multiple reports of rodent activity between 2021-2025, and recurring complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests in early 2025. The building has an active heat and hot water complaint from March 2025, and recent service requests in May 2025 relating to plumbing issues with bathtubs/showers and cabinet painting.

Various housing maintenance code violations have been recorded, including an open violation from May 2024 concerning plaster and paint repairs in Apartment 15D. The building's elevator system has undergone multiple inspections and repairs in recent years, with violations noted in 2022 regarding safety features that were subsequently resolved. The property has also faced construction-related issues, with several Department of Buildings violations from 2022 regarding construction safety compliance, including inadequate fencing and failure to designate a construction superintendent during excavation work.

There are active Environmental Control Board violations from 2024 concerning unauthorized business signs related to "Sticky Tiki," with penalties imposed. While the building has demonstrated some periodic maintenance of its systems, as evidenced by various resolved violations, the persistence of pest-related issues and more recent maintenance complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep. Notably, there have been no reports of bedbug infestations in the past two reporting periods, and the building has shown generally good compliance with elevator inspection requirements, though some violations have been recorded and resolved.
