137 Hewes Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

137 Hewes Street is a four-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1910 in Williamsburg, currently owned by the I. Indig Family Irrevocable Trust.

The building has a documented history of bedbug report violation notices from 2021 to 2023, each of which was classified as "Class A" violations under the Housing Maintenance Code related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports with HPD. However, the situation has shown consistent improvement over the past two years: the building has maintained an impeccable record of zero reported infestations, as evidenced by the bedbug reports filed in 2025 and 2024, which documented no infested dwelling units, no units requiring eradication, and no cases of re-infestation.

The most recent bedbug report filing for the period ending October 31, 2024, indicates the building has maintained a pest-free status for multiple consecutive reporting periods (2022-2024), with the same positive results reflected in the 2023 report as well. While the initial series of violation notices regarding bedbug report compliance suggests a previous administrative oversight, the complete absence of infestations and successful compliance with reporting requirements in recent years indicates the building is currently being managed in accordance with HPD regulations regarding bedbug reporting and management. The transition from violation notices to compliance, along with the demonstrated pest-free status, represents a significant positive shift in the building's maintenance profile.
