230 North 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

This four-story, 36-unit residential building at 230 North 8th Street in Williamsburg, owned by Erica Mccarthy and constructed in 2004, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over recent years. Most recently, in 2024, there was an unresolved water leak complaint that required HPD inspection, but access was not granted for the inspection.

The building faced pest-related challenges in 2022, with documented rodent activity in May and June, leading to HPD inspections; though no violations were found, the rodent sightings warranted multiple inspections. The property has a history of administrative bedbug reporting violations, particularly notable in 2021-2022 when multiple Notices of Violation were issued regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were ultimately closed. More recently, from 2022 onwards, the bedbug reporting process has shown consistent compliance, with the most recent filings (2023-2024) showing zero infested units.

The building's maintenance history reveals a mix of compliance and violations, with the most concerning recent issue being the water leak complaint in 2024 that remained unresolved due to lack of inspection access. While the rodent problem documented in 2022 appears to have been addressed, as evidenced by a passed compliance inspection in July 2022, the building's history shows periods of pest-related challenges. It's worth noting that the property has undergone regular inspections and has maintained proper bedbug reporting requirements since the initial violations were addressed, with all recent filings showing no infested units or eradication issues.
