163 North 6th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
163 North 6th Street is a 5-story, 92-unit residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Mordechai Katz. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, most notably including a pest infestation reported in April 2025 that resulted in HPD violations, marking the building's first pest-related violations in years. The building underwent construction work between 2018-2022 that triggered multiple complaints and violations, including an emergency violation in 2018 for broken/missing window guards, followed by several emergency door-related issues in 2020. During the construction period, there were documented instances of work being performed without proper permits and contrary to stop work orders, along with violations related to safety equipment such as sprinklers and fire alarms.
The building has maintained a relatively consistent record regarding bedbug infestations, with reports from 2019-2024 showing zero infested units. Recent building inspections in 2023 passed without significant findings. Historical records show rodent activity concerns in 2016-2022, with the most recent inspection in July 2023 passing. Violation records from 2019-2024 indicate compliance with various housing maintenance requirements, though there have been several missed deadlines for filing inspections and reporting, resulting in fines that were subsequently dismissed.
The property has also had issues related to its parking structure inspection requirements, with a violation issued in October 2024 for failure to submit the required report. While the building has demonstrated recurring maintenance issues, particularly during the 2018-2022 period, recent years have shown improved compliance and fewer reported problems. The property has maintained active bedbug control protocols and generally passes rodent inspections, though periodic issues with garbage storage and building maintenance have been documented through 311 complaints and housing code violations. The Department of Buildings records show regular permit activity, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvements to the property.
