179 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

179 Union Street is a four-story, four-unit residential building located in Carroll Gardens and owned by Brian Mahanna. Built in 1900, this old-law tenement property has experienced several noteworthy events over the past few years. Most recently, in May 2024, there was a complaint regarding building shaking or vibrating, though the Department of Buildings' inspection found no violations at that time.

The building has had documented water supply issues in May 2022, which were inspected by HPD but resulted in no violations. Two annual bedbug violation notices were issued in 2021 and 2022 for failure to file the required reports, though subsequent filings from 2022 through 2024 show consistent records of zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting proper handling of this pest management requirement thereafter. The property's maintenance history shows generally favorable conditions, with no rodent issues reported in inspections from July 2018, and the most recent bedbug reports consistently indicating no infestations.

The building's violation history indicates prompt resolution of most issues, with the exception of the 2021 and 2022 bedbug reporting violations. While the recent building vibration complaint in 2024 raises some concern, it is worth noting that no violation was found upon inspection. The property has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since the initial violations were addressed, and the water supply issue from 2022 appears to have been an isolated incident.
