115 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 115 Bergen Street in Boerum Hill, owned by Kim Schwarz, has experienced several notable maintenance and pest-related issues over recent years. Built in 1868 as an Old Law Tenement, the property has demonstrated ongoing challenges with rodent control, particularly evident in 2023 with multiple service requests and inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) reporting rat activity in May, June, and July, with bait applied in July 2023.

The building has also faced administrative compliance matters, as shown by a DOHMH inspection in May 2023 noting conditions attracting rodents, followed by an inspection with violations requiring follow-up. The property has documented its bedbug reporting requirements appropriately in recent years, with filings showing no reported infestations or eradications from November 2020 through October 2023, indicating adherence to the Housing Maintenance Code's bedbug reporting requirements. Earlier violations included a 2019 citation for inadequate lighting at the front entranceway, which was certified as corrected in September 2019.

A complaint regarding an alleged illegal conversion was recorded in September 2022, though access was denied during inspection attempts. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing violations, with most being closed properly, though the 2024 bedbug report filing noted no units with infestation or eradication during the specified period. The property remains subject to regular inspections and compliance requirements typical of its age and classification within New York City's housing regulations.
