157 Hewes Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

157 Hewes Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, constructed in 1899 and currently owned by Sheindy Goldstein. The building has undergone a disease-related conversion to a Class A dwelling. Notably, there has been consistent attention to bedbug reporting compliance, with the New York City Housing Maintenance Code violations indicating four separate instances between 2021 and 2024 where the owner was cited for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports, though all these violations have since been closed.

The most recent violation was recorded in April 2024, while similar citations occurred in March 2023, February 2022, and April 2021. Despite these violations, the building's bedbug reporting history shows a consistent pattern of no infestation problems. The most recent filing period from November 2022 to October 2023 indicated zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units.

This pattern of compliance is mirrored in previous filings, including the 2023 report (covering 2021-2022) and the 2021 report (covering 2019-2020), all showing clean records with no reported infestations. It's worth noting that while the building has experienced violations regarding report filing, there is no evidence of actual bedbug infestations affecting the units, with the property maintaining a record of successful eradication where necessary. The owners have demonstrated compliance with reporting requirements in recent filings, with the most current report (September 2024) showing no infestation issues during the preceding year.
