1272 Herkimer Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

As of July 2025, the three-unit, three-story residential building at 1272 Herkimer Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Yvonne Rivers and constructed in 1901, has a concerning history of pest-related violations requiring attention. The property has been consistently cited for failing to file annual bedbug reports over a four-year period from 2021 to 2024, with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024 still showing as open.

These recurring violations suggest a lack of compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements regarding pest documentation. The building has also faced significant rodent infestation challenges, particularly evident from 2010 to 2018, with multiple failed inspections recorded throughout this period.

Between 2010 and 2018, the property experienced ten rodent inspections, with six initial inspections and three compliance inspections, of which only one passed (in 2014) while the others failed for various unspecified reasons. While the most recent available data does not indicate any rodent violations since 2018, the historical pattern suggests this has been an ongoing maintenance concern, though there have been no documented rodent issues in recent years. The building's continuing open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements, though separate from rodent concerns, indicate persistent challenges with pest management documentation compliance.
