139 Kane Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231
The three-unit, three-story Old Law Tenement building at 139 Kane Street in Cobble Hill, owned by Pierre Janssen and constructed in 1910, presents a mixed record of maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most notably, the building has consistently received violations related to Bedbug Reporting compliance between 2021 and 2024, with open violations recorded in 2023 and 2024 specifically citing failures to file the annual bedbug report as required by Housing Maintenance Code § HMC.
A recent rodent-related complaint filed in May 2024 was investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), which found no violations at the time of inspection, and a subsequent rodent inspection in May 2024 also resulted in a passing grade. The building's recent history shows some improvement in pest management compliance, as evidenced by the complete bedbug reporting for the 2020-2021 period showing no infested units, eradicated units, or re-infested units.
In 2022, there was an unrelated complaint regarding illegal conversion (filed August 2022) that was investigated and found no violations at the time of inspection in October 2022. While the property appears to have addressed some inspection issues (passing recent rodent inspections), the persistent bedbug reporting violations over multiple years, now in 2023 and 2024, suggest ongoing challenges with compliance in this area. The most recent documentation shows active violations as of April 2024 regarding bedbug reporting requirements, though these appear to be administrative in nature rather than directly impacting resident health or safety.
