157 North 5th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The three-story, three-unit residential building at 157 North 5th Street in Williamsburg, owned by Joseph Hariley, has a documented history dating back to its 1899 construction as an Old Law Tenement.
The property has experienced recurring pest management challenges over the years, most notably with bedbug reporting compliance issues from 2021 through 2024, though the most recent 2025 bedbug report indicates no current infestations, with zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units reported. The building has also faced significant rodent issues, particularly between 2019 and 2020, with multiple inspections showing rat activity, though the most recent rodent-related service request in 2020 was addressed satisfactorily with no violations found by the Department of Health.
The property is currently in good standing with no outstanding violations, as evidenced by the April 2024 inspection which showed compliance with the bedbug reporting requirement, though with no validated certifications on file. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing monitoring and management of pest-related issues, with regular inspections and prompt attention to service requests, culminating in the successful resolution of recent bedbug reporting compliance matters.
