AI summary · updated June 2026

The 4-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building at 111 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, owned by Michal Kowalski and constructed in 1910, has experienced several documented maintenance issues over the past five years. In June 2019, three separate complaints were filed with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) regarding unsanitary conditions and wall paint/plaster issues, including one specifically mentioning pests; however, HPD was unable to gain access to inspect these conditions, resulting in the complaints being closed without resolution. A subsequent violation notice from April 2021 indicated a failure to file the required annual bedbug report, though this violation status is marked as closed.

Notably, the building has had an exemplary record regarding bedbug infestations since the 2020-2021 reporting period: according to five consecutive annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, there have been no reported infestations, eradications, or re-infestations in any dwelling units. This consistent zero-infestation record over multiple reporting periods, combined with the resolution of the 2021 bedbug reporting violation, suggests improved pest management practices. The building's maintenance history shows three non-emergency complaints in 2019, but there have been no documented similar complaints or violations in recent years, indicating a potentially improved response to maintenance issues.
