838 Herkimer Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

838 Herkimer Street is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, and was constructed in 1901. The property, now classified as a converted Class A building, is currently owned by Howard Lev.

The most pressing recent issue involves a heat and hot water complaint filed in March 2025, which was classified as an emergency by the Housing Maintenance Code but could not be investigated due to lack of access to the apartments. Throughout the building's recent history, there have been no documented bedbug infestations, with annual reports from 2019 through 2025 showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management practices. The building has undergone several rodent inspections in recent years, with the most recent inspection in July 2025 resulting in a pass.

There was a failed rodent inspection in July 2024, though previous and subsequent inspections in December 2022 and November 2024 respectively passed. The property's maintenance record shows generally good conditions, with no significant ongoing pest or infestation issues reported, and it appears to have achieved compliance with most housing maintenance requirements, aside from the recent heating system access issue. The building's age suggests it has undergone typical urban maintenance challenges, but the absence of recurring issues or violations in recent years indicates stable management practices.
