53 North 3rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249
53 North 3rd Street is a 7-story, 113-unit residential building constructed in 2009, currently owned by Eqr-175 Kent Avenue, LLC. The property has experienced recurring pest issues, particularly with rodents, as evidenced by multiple DOHMH rodent complaints between 2021 and 2024, with the most recent inspections in 2024 showing rat activity. The building has had repeated sanitation concerns, including unsanitary conditions related to sewage (complaints in 2022, 2023, and 2024) and pest infestations (2021 and 2024), though not all inspections resulted in violations.
The elevator system has been a point of focus, with multiple complaints about inspection failures between 2019 and 2021, and an ECB violation in 2021 related to door zone restrictors and safety features, though many were resolved or dismissed upon inspection. The building's maintenance history shows significant heat and hot water issues in October 2018, with multiple emergency complaints during that period. Housing Maintenance Code violations include an open C-class violation from December 2021 regarding a mouse infestation in apartment 314, and a 2022 A-class violation related to bedbug reporting requirements.
While the building has maintained a zero-infested unit count in its bedbug reports since 2019, with eradicated units also showing zero, the consistent rodent activity and sanitation complaints suggest ongoing challenges with pest control. The property has generally passed recent inspections, including rodent inspections in 2022 and May 2023, though more recent inspections in 2024 indicated continuing rodent activity. The building's management has submitted the required bedbug reports annually, showing no new infestations in the past three reporting periods (2021-2024).
