310 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11249

The 5-story building at 310 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, owned by Leah Schiff, has experienced recurring challenges with both pest control and infrastructure maintenance since its completion in 2008. Most notably, there have been multiple food establishment-related complaints involving rodent issues, with the most recent complaint filed in September 2022 and closed in June 2024.

Between 2018 and 2024, there were several food safety violations, including instances of improper food handling (bare hands touching food) and sanitation concerns that led to official warnings from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug control compliance, with no reported infestations from November 2019 through October 2024, though violations for not filing annual bedbug reports were noted in 2021 and 2023. Infrastructure concerns have included lighting issues, with a complaint about no lighting submitted in December 2019, and rodent control measures were implemented in March 2022 with bait applications.

The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with a failed inspection noted in August 2018 and successful bait application in March 2022. The property has shown some responsiveness to mold and moisture issues, as evidenced by a 2021 inspection identifying non-compliant doors as contributing to moisture problems, though records indicate these violations were addressed. Overall, while the building has encountered various health and maintenance challenges, recent bedbug reporting compliance and the absence of documented pesticide use as of October 2024 suggest some improvement in pest management practices.
