142 North 1st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249
The five-story, eight-unit residential building at 142 North 1st Street in Williamsburg, owned by Jon Carnero, has experienced persistent rodent issues over recent years. Between 2023 and 2025, multiple rat sightings were documented, with the most recent inspections in March 2025 showing continued rat activity. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has conducted several inspections, consistently finding violations related to rodent activity, though one August 2023 inspection did not find any violations.
The building has undergone multiple compliance inspections, with most showing rat activity, though bait was applied during one inspection in August 2024. The property has maintained an active bedbug monitoring regimen, filing required annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested units in all reporting periods, including the most recent December 2024 filing period. The building's violation history shows some Department of Buildings (DOB) violations from 2019 and 2020, though these were dismissed in December 2022 based on corrected defects.
Two Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations were recorded in 2021 and 2024 regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements, though the 2024 violation status shows as "Close" with no current status date provided. While the building has faced ongoing rodent control challenges, its bedbug management program appears to have been effective in preventing infestations. The property has generally passed initial rodent inspections in earlier years (2019-2022), though recent years have shown more consistent rat activity during inspections.
