68 Nevins Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217

68 Nevins Street is a three-story, two-unit old law tenement building located in Boerum Hill, built in 1920 and currently owned by Linda Sledge Sledge. The building has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years that warrant attention. Most notably, there were multiple Annual Bedbug Reporting violations from 2021 to 2023, though the most recent reports for 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 indicate no infested or re-infested units.

The building faced structural concerns in 2019-2020, including a leaning support column in the first-floor commercial space and exterior maintenance issues involving vertical cracks and loose bricks, resulting in Environmental Control Board violations with penalties that were subsequently resolved. A mold-related complaint was filed in November 2020, though no violations were issued upon inspection. The property has undergone several inspections for rodent activity between 2013 and 2018, showing variable results from "Passed" to "Rat Activity," with the last inspection in 2018 passing.

Building work permits were issued in early 2019 for various projects, including plumbing and electrical work. The building's recent history shows improved pest control management, with no bedbug incidents reported in the past two filing periods, and the mold complaint from 2020 appears to have been an isolated incident with no subsequent similar complaints. The property has maintained compliance with HPD requirements to date, though there have been periodic violations that indicate the need for ongoing maintenance and oversight.
