134 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

134 Union Street is a four-story, six-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the Columbia Street neighborhood, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by 134 Union Street, LLC. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with significant concerns regarding heating and plumbing systems. In January 2019, emergency complaints were filed regarding inadequate heat and non-functioning bathtub/shower facilities, particularly affecting the 4R apartment, though inspections found no violations.

A 2019 sewage odor complaint prompted a Department of Health advisory to the property management. More recently, the building faced regulatory scrutiny, receiving a violation in April 2023 for failing to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection report, though this was subsequently dismissed in August 2023. The property has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in the past five years, as confirmed by the 2025 bedbug report showing zero infested or eradicated units.

The building underwent several permitted maintenance works between 2018 and 2019, including multiple plumbing and electrical repairs, as evidenced by multiple permits issued during that period. Most recently, in 2024, a bedbug reporting violation was issued, though this was not classified as a serious violation and does not appear to have affected resident conditions. The building's maintenance history suggests active management response to issues as they arise, particularly through the issuance of permits for various repair works.
