133 Jefferson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
This three-story, three-unit Old Law Tenement building at 133 Jefferson Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Frank Lang, was constructed in 1899 and has experienced several notable issues over the past five years. The building has undergone regular inspections for both rodent activity and bedbug reports, with the most recent bedbug filings from 2025 showing no infestations or eradications over the past five reporting periods. While rodent inspections have generally passed, there have been instances of rat activity noted in May 2025, December 2022, and November 2022, indicating ongoing pest management challenges.
The property has faced various maintenance and safety violations, particularly relating to building systems and tenant safety equipment. Between 2018 and 2022, violations were recorded for defective intercommunication systems in apartments 1A and 2A, security issues including lockable slide bolts in 1A, and safety equipment problems such as faulty smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in 2A. Additional maintenance concerns have included defective electrical outlets and leaky faucets in apartment 1A, though all these violations were ultimately closed.
A construction complaint from October 2020 was investigated in December 2020 but resulted in no violations being found. Recent inspection records show consistent monitoring of building conditions, with the most current rat inspection in June 2025 passing, though a May 2025 inspection noted rat activity. The building's permit history shows three permits issued in 2019 (numbers 01-03) and one in March 2020, all related to alterations.
