90 Pierrepont Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

90 Pierrepont Street in Brooklyn Heights is a 4-story, 20-unit residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Robin Wachtel. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints filed between 2021 and 2024, affecting either individual apartments or the entire building. Most recently, in October 2024, there were heat/hot water complaints that remained unresolved after HPD inspections due to lack of access.

The building has also faced rat activity challenges, with the most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 indicating persistent rodent presence, though previous inspections from 2018-2023 showed compliance and passage of inspections. A notable recent violation was recorded in October 2024 regarding a defective self-closing door in apartment 2C, though this has been marked as closed. The building's maintenance history shows various repairs and violations being addressed, including past issues in apartment 5A noted in 2018 concerning ceiling plaster, wood floor, and water supply pipe issues.

The property has maintained an active bedbug prevention and monitoring program, with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 indicating zero infestation instances. Historical violations from 2018 related to safety signage and building access requirements were addressed and closed, including requirements for gas leak procedures signage and removal of encumbrances in common areas. While the building has experienced recurring heat system issues, it's worth noting that many complaints were resolved promptly, though not always through direct inspections. The property management has generally addressed maintenance violations, as evidenced by the closure of most historical issues, though the recent heat system complaints suggest ongoing challenges in this area.
