155 Rutledge Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The three-unit, two-story building at 155 Rutledge Street in Williamsburg, owned by Sara Grossberg and built in 1899, has undergone several significant regulatory scrutiny points over the past few years. Most notably, the property has faced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2024, with four consecutive violations in each of these years regarding the failure to file required annual bedbug reports, though the most recent 2024 report indicates no infestation.

In 2020, there were serious concerns regarding lead paint hazards, with multiple violations recorded between January and July of that year, including the failure to notify occupants of potential risks and to provide required documentation related to lead paint inspections and remediation efforts; while one of these violations is listed as "closed", two remain "open" as of the last available data. Recent rodent activity has emerged as a concerning pattern at the property, with three inspections in 2024 (July, October, and November) consistently showing evidence of rat activity, though the July inspection resulted in a "Passed" compliance rating.

The most recent rodent inspection in November 2024 was specifically categorized as a "Compliance" inspection, suggesting ongoing monitoring of this issue. While the building has shown some improvement in its overall reporting compliance in recent years, as evidenced by the most recent bedbug reporting cycle from 2022-2023 showing zero infested units, the presence of open lead-related violations and persistent rodent activity remains a notable pattern in the building's recent history.
