164 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11249
164 Bedford Avenue is a three-story, four-unit residential building located in Williamsburg, owned by Jerry Lebedowicz and dating back to 1910. The property has experienced recurring pest control issues, most notably with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections between 2018-2025 showing consistent infestations and the need for bait applications. The building currently has open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2018-2024 related to several safety and compliance matters, including requirements for annual bedbug reporting, carbon monoxide detector notices, gas leak procedure postings, and proper signage regarding building registration and inspection certificates.
Additional concerns include recent complaints about standing water (July 2024) and historical issues with food establishment conditions, including rodent/insect problems and odor complaints in 2023-2024, though these were investigated and closed without violations. The building has a documented history of water-related issues, including a significant water leak (heavy flow) complaint in 2020 that was investigated but resulted in no violations. Emergency heating/hot water complaints were filed in August 2018, though these matters were also closed without violations.
A complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms was filed in March 2023 but was closed due to inspector access issues. The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections from 2018 through 2025, with the most recent inspection in March 2025 confirming rat activity. While several past health department complaints have been resolved, the ongoing violations and consistent pest control requirements suggest persistent maintenance challenges within the building. This summary is based on building data up to October 2023 and is intended for informational purposes only.
