160 South 1st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The 35-unit, 6-story building at 160 South 1st Street in Williamsburg, built in 1912 and currently owned by Miguel Santiago, is experiencing significant maintenance challenges as of 2025. The property has received multiple emergency and non-emergency complaints through 311 in February 2025, including issues with heat/hot water, electrical outlets, flooring, plumbing fixtures, wall and ceiling conditions, and mold.
All of these complaints were closed without proper inspections being conducted, indicating potential access or procedural challenges. The building's record shows a concerning pattern of unresolved maintenance issues, with open violations as of 2024 related to bedbug reporting requirements and multiple building code infractions from August 2023, including problems with fire-retardant materials in public areas, gas supply to fixtures, and water leaks.
Additional concerns include rat activity indicated in recent rodent inspections from 2024 (May and June) and previous instances in 2019, plus uncured building maintenance violations noted in March 2023 regarding a disrepair condition of the cornice, for which a penalty was imposed, and another violation from June 2023 related to an inspection filing requirement. The building's history shows a mix of compliance and failure periods for rodent control measures between 2017 and 2019, suggesting inconsistent pest management. While some past issues have been resolved, the concentration of recent complaints and open violations, particularly regarding basic services like heat and water, as well as safety concerns like fire retardancy and pest control, indicates ongoing maintenance challenges at this property.
