149 Taylor Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
149 Taylor Street is a 6-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1900 in Williamsburg, containing 13 residential units and currently owned by Mendy Deutsch. The building has faced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns being multiple emergency "line of travel" complaints filed in October 2023, though these were promptly closed within two days.
A substantial cluster of violations was documented in September 2023, primarily focusing on defective self-closing doors in multiple apartments (3F, 4B, 5F, and 6B), though most were subsequently addressed and certified closed by late 2023. The building has also accumulated numerous Department of Buildings violations related to inspection compliance, with active violations indicating failures to file External Low-Pressure Inspection reports consistently from 2018 through 2024, as well as a failure to file the 2020 Benchmarking Report of Energy Use. The building's maintenance history shows some attention to safety concerns, with two 2024 violations related to fire retardant material and paint requirements in the 6th-story public hall being closed by December 2024.
However, the pattern of violations suggests ongoing challenges with timely compliance to safety regulations. On a positive note, the bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2024 shows no infestations reported in any units, with the most recent three filings (2022-2024) consistently indicating zero infested or re-infested units. While the building's age and history have generated various code violations, the prompt closure of some issues and consistent bedbug-free status are noteworthy aspects of its current condition.
