636 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, NY 11238
636 Bergen Street is a three-story, two-unit old law tenement building located in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, dating back to 1891 and currently owned by Alexandra Heron. The property has experienced recurring issues with compliance to the Housing Maintenance Code regarding annual bedbug reporting, with open violations documented in 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024, suggesting ongoing regulatory non-compliance.
The building has maintained an active history with pest control measures, particularly in 2017-2018, when multiple inspections documented rat activity, though subsequent compliance inspections showed passing results. In 2024, there was a complaint regarding work performed without a permit in occupied multiple dwelling space, though the inspector was unable to gain access during their final attempt. The building's permit history indicates regular maintenance and improvements, with multiple permits issued between 2019 and 2021 for plumbing, electrical, and alteration work.
Specifically, six permits were granted between 2019 and 2021, including two plumbing permits issued in March 2020 and March 2021. The most recent permit-related activity was recorded in 2021, while the building's current permits show no active violations or pending issues. The property has demonstrated some persistent maintenance challenges over the past several years, particularly relating to compliance reporting and pest control, though recent permit activity suggests regular maintenance and adherence to proper channels for building improvements.
