1094 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The 4-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building at 1094 Bedford Avenue, owned by Ben Daris LLC and constructed in 1930, has faced several significant maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, there has been a persistent issue with rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025 consistently showing either rat activity or resulting in violations.

The building has also experienced moisture-related problems, including a January 2024 complaint about mold that affected an apartment bathroom, and resulting Housing Maintenance Code violations requiring repairs and abatement of approximately 10 square feet of mold at the east wall in Apartment 2. The property has outstanding violations regarding the failure to file required external low pressure inspections for multiple years (2018-2021) as of June 2023. The building's maintenance history shows recurring compliance checks and inspections, with the most recent rodent activity report from July 2025 indicating either persistent infestation or ongoing maintenance challenges.

Previous issues have included a heat and hot water complaint in November 2019, which was reportedly resolved promptly. The property has maintained bedbug reporting compliance, with reports showing no infested units or eradication efforts needed in the 2021-2022 and 2019-2020 reporting periods. Additionally, there are several closed violations from 2019 regarding building safety and notification requirements, including proper posting of housing information guides and gas leak procedures, which were certified as corrected in 2020.
