158 Grand Street, Brooklyn, NY 11249
The four-story, six-unit tenement building at 158 Grand Street in Williamsburg, owned by Matthew Gelfand and constructed in 1910, is currently facing multiple Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations as of 2023. A significant cluster of violations was identified during a May 2023 inspection, primarily related to building entrance requirements, including the need for proper glass installation at the first-story entrance and vestibule doors, and the removal of problematic plexiglass installations.
The building also has open violations regarding the proper posting of required notices, including those related to smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detecting device requirements, Housing Information Guide availability, and the building's registration number. More recently, in April 2024, a violation was recorded for not filing the annual bedbug report in accordance with HPD rules, though it's worth noting that the building has reported zero bedbug infestations in all annual reports from 2020 through 2025.
The building's maintenance history shows consistent rodent inspections in 2016 and 2019, both of which passed, indicating no rodent-related issues. The most pressing concerns for residents currently appear to be the numerous open violations regarding building safety and maintenance requirements as of mid-2025.
