176 Hart Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206
The three-story, two-unit building at 176 Hart Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Harry Weiss and constructed in 1931, has experienced ongoing pest management challenges over recent years.
Most concerning is a persistent rat problem, with documented rat activity recorded during multiple inspections in 2025 (March, June, and July), and several instances of bait application throughout 2024 and 2025. The building has also faced regulatory challenges, with open violations relating to the failure to file required annual bedbug reports in accordance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements, with these violations dating back to 2021 and continuing through at least 2024.
Historical complaints include a July 2020 sanitation issue involving garbage/recycling storage, though this was investigated by HPD and closed without violations being issued, as well as a rat sighting in April 2021 that resulted in a DOHMH inspection, which found only minor violations. The property has undergone regular inspections and pest control interventions, with bait being applied numerous times, indicating ongoing efforts to address the rodent situation, though the persistence of both rat activity and open violations suggests challenges remain.
