73 Herkimer Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
73 Herkimer Street is a 4-story, 6-unit old law tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, built in 1910 and currently owned by Brian Osborne. The building has experienced several recurring issues over recent years, particularly with rodent activity, evidenced by ongoing inspections throughout 2024 requiring multiple bait applications and a pattern of rat activity.
Most recently, in July 2025, the building passed a rodent inspection by DOHMH, though this follows a significant history of pest-related complaints, including an unsanitary condition violation for pests in 2021. The building has faced various maintenance challenges, including emergency complaints related to cooking gas issues in late 2022, a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building in December 2022, and multiple inspections in 2023 regarding ceiling paint/plaster conditions.
Notably, there is an open Class A violation as of April 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with similar violations recorded in previous years (2021-2023). The property also has three active DOB violations from June 2023 for failure to file external low-pressure inspections for the years 2018-2020. While many of the reported issues have been addressed through inspections that found no violations, the recurring nature of the complaints, particularly relating to pest control and the bedbug reporting requirement, suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges.
