149 North 7th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249

149 North 7th Street is a three-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Williamsburg, built in 1910 and currently owned by David Leiter. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with two emergency complaints filed regarding the entire building's heating system in December 2023 and November 2021, both of which were subsequently resolved according to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.

While the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations over the past seven reporting periods from 2018 to 2024, it has faced significant challenges with rodent activity in 2022, as evidenced by three consecutive inspections in June, July (Compliance), and July (Bait) all showing rat activity, with bait applied in the most recent inspection. The building's most recent bedbug reporting period from 2023-2024 shows no infestations, and this pattern of cleanliness has continued since 2019.

However, the heating system's recurring issues in 2021 and 2023 indicate potential ongoing maintenance concerns. The only recorded violation in recent years was a March 2022 notice regarding the need to file an annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been resolved since subsequent reports have been filed regularly. The property has demonstrated attention to pest control in recent years, particularly regarding the complete eradication of bedbugs since 2019, though the 2022 rodent inspections suggest there may have been temporary challenges with pests in that year.
