176 Lefferts Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238
176 Lefferts Place is a 4-story, 5-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, owned by Berish Rubin and constructed in 1931. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past eight years, with the most recent being related to fire safety and emergency preparedness. In 2019, the building received violations for failing to properly post gas leak procedures and smoke detector requirements in the common areas, though these were certified as corrected by May 2019.
Additionally, a violation regarding the posting of heating system access information was recorded in 2015 and was only certified as corrected in January 2024. While the building has maintained a regular bedbug reporting schedule from 2019 to 2025, all reports consistently showed zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. The building has also undergone six rodent inspections between 2021 and 2025, with two showing rat activity (in April 2024 and February 2022), though the most recent inspection in April 2025 passed. A 311 complaint regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage was investigated in 2018-2019 but resulted in no violations being issued.
The property has maintained relatively good compliance with housing maintenance codes in recent years, with all previously identified violations being addressed, including the installation of proper notice requirements and posting of inspection certificates near mailboxes. The building's bedbug management record demonstrates consistent monitoring with no detected infestations over multiple reporting periods. The two instances of rat activity in the past four years indicate occasional pest control challenges, though the successful resolution of these issues is evidenced by subsequent passing inspections. The most recent building inspection in April 2025 suggests improved conditions, though the property's historical record shows periodic lapses in maintenance related to safety notifications and emergency preparedness measures.
