47 Grand Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249
The 4-unit, 4-story building at 47 Grand Street in Williamsburg, owned by Dennis McCormack and dating back to 1900, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years.
Most notably, the building has received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports with HPD, representing an ongoing compliance issue with pest management protocols. Additionally, in December 2019, the property was the subject of multiple serious violations related to unauthorized transient use, including illegal hotel room activities in Apartments 1 and 4, which resulted in financial penalties totaling $7,250.
These violations cited failures to provide necessary fire safety systems, automatic sprinklers, and adequate means of egress for transient use, though records indicate these violations were subsequently resolved. The building's history raises concerns about both pest control compliance and past unauthorized transient use, though it's worth noting that these issues primarily relate to historical violations rather than current occupancy conditions as of 2025.
