442 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11249

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 442 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, owned by Isaac Breuer and completed in 1992, has experienced several noteworthy events over its operational history. Most recently, in April 2023, the property received an Environmental Control Board violation for unpermitted construction work, specifically involving a new three-pane casement window and wood/stucco structure, resulting in a $1,250 penalty that remains unpaid.

In early 2022, the building was cited for failing to file its annual bedbug report, though this violation was marked as closed. The building has maintained a consistent record of being bedbug-free, with all subsequent annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2025 (including the most recent January 2025 filing) showing zero infested or eradicated units.

Other significant events include a December 2019 complaint regarding water retention and drainage issues, which was referred to the Department of Environmental Protection, and a successful rodent inspection in March 2019, which passed. The building's record shows regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since the 2022 violation was addressed, with no reported infestations in over five years. While most violations have been promptly resolved, the active ECB violation from 2023 and the 2019 drainage complaint represent the building's only documented issues that remain unresolved or required external intervention.
