145 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 145 Bergen Street in Boerum Hill, owned by Patricia Perlman, is a converted Class A structure built in 1873. The property has a history of bedbug reporting compliance issues, with Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded in 2019, 2021, 2022, and most recently in 2024, all pertaining to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.

However, it's important to note that there have been no reported bedbug infestations in any unit over this same period; the building's management has consistently reported zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units in the annual filings from 2020 through 2025. The most pressing current issue appears to be a persistent lighting problem at the building's front entrance, which was cited as an open Class B violation in 2019.

This violation relates to inadequate lighting at the front entranceway, where the building was required to maintain minimum 100 watts lighting from sunset to sunrise, though the documented violation status does not indicate whether this has been resolved or continues to affect residents. While the bedbug reporting violations suggest occasional administrative oversight by management, the absence of actual infestations during this period points to effective pest management practices once the required reports were filed.
