135 North 6th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249
The property at 135 North 6th Street in Williamsburg is a 4-story, 8-unit Old Law Tenement built in 1910, currently owned by Simon Schischa. The building has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, with the most significant being unauthorized transient occupancy in Apartment 4L between late 2021 and early 2022, which resulted in multiple Environmental Control Board violations related to safety systems and building maintenance requirements for transient use, though these were ultimately resolved with no penalties.
More recent concerns include an unresolved violation for failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection and the 2017 boiler inspection report, both classified as active violations. The building has maintained a consistent bedbug reporting record from 2020-2024, showing no infested units during any of the reporting periods, and the most recent 2024 report submitted on December 20, 2024, indicated zero infestations for the 2023-2024 period.
However, there have been recurring sanitation issues, particularly with rodent activity, with inspections in 2024 (both February and March) noting rat activity, while earlier inspections showed mixed results between passing and failing for other reasons. The building's inspection and complaint history shows several other minor issues, including a recent complaint about building shaking in March 2024 which was found to be unwarranted, and a 2019 pest complaint that warranted an HPD inspection but resulted in no violations. The property has also faced challenges with maintaining proper reporting compliance to HPD, as evidenced by the multiple annual bedbug report violations issued from 2021-2024, though the most recent reports suggest improved compliance with no reported infestations.
