135 Adelphi Street, Brooklyn, NY 11205

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 135 Adelphi Street in Fort Greene, owned by Mary Wimbish and constructed in 1901, has experienced persistent challenges with compliance to housing maintenance code requirements over recent years. Most notably, the property has accumulated four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations, with the most recent open violation recorded in April 2024 still showing no certified resolution.

The building underwent multiple rodent control interventions in late 2021, with bait applications documented through November 2021, though a subsequent inspection in December 2022 showed a passing result. In late 2021, there was a complaint regarding unpermitted plumbing work and sprinkler/standpipe installation at the property, though this was investigated in January 2022 and resulted in no violations being warranted at the time of inspection.

The cumulative record suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining compliance to city housing regulations, particularly concerning bedbug reporting requirements, which remain unresolved as of the current date in July 2025. The building's age and relatively small number of units are typical for the Fort Greene neighborhood, but the recurring nature of the bedbug report violations and the historical rodent issues may be of particular concern for current and prospective tenants.
