1610 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11225
The four-story, 16-unit tenement building at 1610 Bedford Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by Norman Weingarten, has shown persistent issues with basic services during 2025. Between January and February 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints affecting both individual units and the entire building, with several instances where HPD could not gain access for inspection. The building also experienced separate incidents of plumbing issues, including water supply problems, and electrical concerns in late 2024/early 2025 with documented power outages and lighting failures.
A significant lead-based paint violation was identified in July 2024 in apartment 3D, along with multiple other building maintenance issues including mold, water leaks, and concerns about encumbrances blocking fire escapes. The building's management has generally addressed violations within the required timeframe, with most 2024-2025 issues being closed through inspection or certification. Historical records indicate past controversies, including a 2018 violation regarding illegal occupancy in apartment 4D and a 2018 citation for maintenance issues related to a tree causing concrete slab lifting.
There was notable rodent activity documented in 2018 and 2022, though recent inspections in 2024-2025 have all passed. The building's laundry list of 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code issues in early 2025 suggest ongoing challenges with building systems, particularly heat and water, despite regular inspections showing varying levels of code compliance. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free reports from 2021-2024, with only one instance of infestation noted in 2019.
