203 Rutledge Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 203 Rutledge Street in Williamsburg, owned by Rose Lebovitz, is a converted Class A structure built in 1899. The property has consistent and ongoing Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded in April 2024, March 2023, March 2022, and April 2021.

These violations, which have persisted for several years, pertain to the owner's failure to file the mandated annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD rules. Additionally, there were two Department of Buildings complaints filed in January 2022 regarding the street address, both classified as "CSE: Sweep," though inspections conducted on January 19, 2022, found no violations warranted at that time, resulting in closed complaints. The building's violation history raises concerns about compliance with basic housing maintenance requirements, particularly regarding pest management documentation.

The persistent nature of the bedbug reporting violations over multiple years suggests a pattern of non-compliance with HMC requirements. While the CSE Sweep complaints from January 2022 did not result in any violations, their occurrence shows that there have been at least two inspections of the property around that time. As of the current date in July 2025, the most recent violation related to bedbug reporting requirements remains open, indicating this issue is still pending resolution.
