170 Skillman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11205
The three-unit, three-story old law tenement building at 170 Skillman Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Martin Werzberger, has recorded two significant issues in recent years that warrant attention.
In October 2020, a complaint regarding illegal or defective gas hook-up/piping was filed and subsequently investigated by the Department of Buildings within a matter of days. While this complaint was marked as closed with an "Oath Violation Served" disposition, the nature of gas-related issues raises safety concerns that should be noted.
Additionally, in January 2021, the building received a violation for failure to certify correction on an immediately hazardous (Class 1) ECB violation, though this was ultimately dismissed in October 2021 when the Environmental Control Board downgraded it to a Class 2 or 3 violation. While both of these issues have been resolved, they represent the most significant incidents on record for this century-old structure over the past several years.
