60 Herkimer Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The four-story, four-unit tenement building at 60 Herkimer Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Norris Wilmot, has experienced recurring challenges with both pest management and rodent control over the past several years. Most notably, there are persistent violations related to bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code, with open violations recorded in 2022, 2023, and 2024, despite a previous closed violation in 2021.

The building's bedbug reporting history shows that during the 2019-2020 reporting period, there were no confirmed infestations, with zero infested or re-infested units and successful eradication efforts, though the repeated violations suggest ongoing administrative compliance issues. The property has had a fluctuating record regarding rodent issues, with the most recent rat activity inspection occurring in August 2023.

While the building passed subsequent rodent inspections in 2024 and early 2025, there were notable instances of rat activity in February 2022 and August 2023, indicating variable effectiveness of pest control measures. The frequency of inspections and varying outcomes suggest that while the building management has made efforts to address these issues, there have been ongoing challenges with both bedbug reporting compliance and rodent control, as evidenced by the pattern of violations and inspection results over the past several years.
