169 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217

169 Bergen Street is a three-story, former Class A residential building located in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, built in 1871 and currently owned by Sidney Meyer. The property has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, most concerning being a rat sighting reported in March 2024 that resulted in health department violations, though subsequent rodent inspections in May 2024 passed without further problems.

The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting record since 2019, with zero reported infestations or eradications in the past five filing periods, indicating compliance with the Bedbug Reporting requirements despite two separate violations in 2023 and 2024 related to the annual report submission. A plumbing emergency complaint regarding toilet issues was filed in June 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access to the unit for verification.

The building's permits show an issued external work permit in April 2023, suggesting recent maintenance or improvement efforts. While the property has faced various maintenance challenges over the past few years, including the need for multiple government agency inspections and responses, the relatively swift resolution of most issues and the absence of recurring pest problems in recent bedbug reports indicates a generally improving maintenance trajectory. The most recent rodent inspection results and passing compliance checks suggest the building is currently addressing and managing its pest control obligations, though the history of violations and service requests indicates this has been an ongoing area requiring attention.
