422 State Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The five-story, 20-unit tenement at 422 State Street in Boerum Hill, owned by Brandon Wechsler, was constructed in 1912 and has exhibited several maintenance and regulatory compliance issues over recent years. Most notably, there is an active violation as of June 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2021 external low-pressure inspection report, and a previous violation for not submitting the annual boiler inspection report for 2017.

While there have been recurring Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2021 and 2023, it's worth noting that all bedbug reports filed from 2019 through April 2024 indicate zero infested or re-infested units. The building has also experienced some elevator-related issues, with a July 2018 violation concerning elevator maintenance and access to pit car call key, though this was later resolved. The property has been subject to various department inspections over the years, including two successful rodent inspections in 2013 and 2018, and a construction-related complaint in 2019 that resulted in no violations being found.

Multiple work permits have been issued for the building, with documented permits from late 2018 and early 2020. While the building has maintained a clean record regarding actual bedbug infestations, the recurring administrative violations related to bedbug reporting and other safety inspections suggest some lapses in regulatory compliance. The most recent bedbug reporting period from December 2024 shows consistent patterns of zero infestations, which is a positive indicator for resident health and safety.
