135 Decatur Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
135 Decatur Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, constructed in 1890 and currently owned by Abe Ariel. The property has experienced persistent maintenance and sanitation challenges over recent years, with particularly notable issues emerging in 2024. Most recently, in May 2024, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene documented rodent-related problems at the building, finding violations requiring follow-up inspections.
The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections throughout 2024, with consistent findings of rat activity and the application of bait in September-December 2024, indicating an ongoing pest control effort. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with water-related problems and unsanitary conditions. In October 2023, multiple complaints were filed and subsequently inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) regarding water leaks, heavy flow, mold, and pest infestations, though no violations were ultimately issued.
Historical records from 2018-2019 indicate previous problems with heat and hot water services, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though inspections were unable to gain access for verification at that time. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting record from 2021 through 2024, consistently reporting zero infested units, suggesting effective management of this particular issue. While the building's documented violations primarily relate to record-keeping requirements for bedbug reports (as evidenced by 2021-2024 violation notices), the more pressing recent concerns involve ongoing rodent activity and general maintenance issues.
