Augrented Insights Report for 98 Berry Street

The 4-story, 13-unit tenement building at 98 Berry Street in Williamsburg, owned by Ofir Kahati, has a significant history of maintenance issues, particularly related to heating, rodent control, and food safety. The building, constructed in 1910, experienced two separate no heat/hot water incidents in 2019 and 2020 affecting the entire building, though these issues were reportedly resolved shortly after being reported. In 2022, an environmental control board violation was issued for various boiler room issues including defective doors and a corroded coil blowdown, which resulted in a $1,562 penalty.

Recent years have seen persistent rodent problems, with multiple instances of rat activity reported between 2022 and 2024, including inspections in early 2024 noting "Rat Activity". The building has also had ongoing food safety concerns, with multiple Department of Health complaints between 2020 and 2025 related to food preparation practices and rodent issues in food establishments. While there have been several bedbug-related violations noted in earlier years, the most recent reports from 2023-2024 show zero infested units, suggesting successful eradication efforts.

The building's most recent 311 complaint from March 2025 regarding food poisoning was determined to be an isolated incident, though it triggered a sanitary inspection review. The property has undergone several inspections related to bedbug reporting requirements, with filings consistently showing no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units from 2020 through 2023, indicating proper compliance with bedbug reporting regulations. While many historical violations have been addressed and closed, the ongoing rodent issues and past heating system problems suggest that regular maintenance challenges persist in this aging structure. The building remains subject to city requirements for various safety and maintenance inspections, including annual bedbug reporting and food safety regulations.
