1482 Herkimer Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The four-story, 8-unit tenement building at 1482 Herkimer Street in Cypress Hills, currently owned by Garfield Hamlet, has faced several recurring issues over recent years, with particular concerns regarding building systems and pest management. Most notably, the building has experienced multiple heat and hot water outages, with complaints recorded in February and December 2024, affecting both entire building and individual apartments, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored by the time inspectors arrived. The building has also shown persistent plumbing issues, with violations documented in May 2023 (bathtub/shower) and July 2023 (basin/sink).
Several unsanitary conditions were reported in July 2023, including pest infestations and garbage/recycling storage problems, with violations issued for pest-related issues. The building has an active construction-related violation from 2019 regarding boiler issues, and there are multiple open violations related to external low-pressure inspection failures from 2023-2024. Recent inspections in October 2023 identified several interior issues including mouse infestation in apartment 8 (class C violation), window frame issues in apartment 3, and various maintenance concerns throughout the building. The property has maintained a consistent record of pest management, with bedbug reports from 2021-2024 indicating no infestation cases, though there was no specific mention of recent pest controls in the latest reports.
Historical records from 2017-2018 showed some rodent activity, though subsequent inspections passed compliance standards. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive maintenance, with multiple emergency complaints requiring HPD intervention. While some violations have been closed, many recent issues remain unresolved as of the latest available data. Regular bedbug reporting shows no infestations since 2020, and previous pest management efforts appear to have maintained relative stability in that regard, though the most recent violations suggest ongoing challenges with general pest control within the building.
