129 28th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
129 28th Street is a three-story, three-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1910 in Sunset Park, currently owned by Justin Freedhand. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues over the past decade, with the most recent cluster of rat sightings occurring in April 2022, involving multiple 311 complaints within days of each other.
These complaints were investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), which documented rat activity during subsequent inspections in June and July 2022. Earlier records show similar patterns, with rat sightings and activity noted between 2016-2017, though there were periods of compliance with rat control measures. The building has also faced regulatory scrutiny regarding bedbug reporting requirements.
During 2021-2023, the property received three Housing Maintenance Code violations (in April 2021, February 2022, and March 2023) for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). However, recent filings from December 2023 and May 2025 indicate no current bedbug infestations, with zero units marked as infested, eradicated, or re-infested during the respective reporting periods. This suggests improved pest management practices in recent years, though the building's history of rodent issues remains notable, with active monitoring required as evidenced by the 2022 rat activity inspections.
