191 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211
191 Bedford Avenue is a 5-story, 16-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1910 and currently owned by 191 Bedford Bh LLC. The property has experienced recurring pest management issues, particularly in 2024-2025, with multiple rat sighting reports and inspections showing rodent activity, though recent inspections have shown improvement with the most recent July 2025 inspection resulting in a "Passed" status and an earlier June 2025 inspection receiving bait application.
The building has faced several significant maintenance challenges, including violations related to water damage, mold issues, and sanitation concerns. Notable violations from 2022-2023 include improper floor height differentials between apartments and hallways, water leakage causing ceiling damage in common areas, and issues with the fire escape ladder safety features. Multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints throughout 2024 documented problems with garbage storage, unsanitary conditions, and plumbing issues including water supply and bathroom facilities.
The building's systems have also presented challenges, with violations related to heating and hot water systems, including a May 2024 emergency complaint regarding heating/hot water issues affecting the entire building, and ongoing concerns about maintenance of building systems as evidenced by multiple Environmental Control Board violations. While there have been no bedbug infestations reported in recent years, the building's overall maintenance record indicates ongoing challenges with building systems, sanitation, and pest management. Recent improvements in rodent control as of mid-2025 suggest some progress in building maintenance, though historical patterns indicate this remains an area requiring attention.
