243 South 4th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The 4-story, 3-unit tenement building at 243 South 4th Street in Williamsburg, owned by Bradley Zelenitz, has a notable history of structural and pest-related issues over the past several years. Most concerning were two significant vehicle impact incidents in 2019 and 2021, when vehicles struck the building and its scaffolding, causing structural concerns including dislodged beams and damaged storefronts, with active violations still recorded for these incidents.
Between 2019 and 2024, the building experienced three documented complaints regarding building shaking or structural stability concerns, though these were generally addressed through violations served. The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance from 2020 through 2024, with all reports indicating zero infested or eradicated units, despite receiving violation notices in 2021 and 2023 for failing to file annual reports, suggesting possible monitoring issues.
Recent pest management efforts have been focused on rodent control, with multiple inspections in 2023 revealing rat activity in spring 2023, though more recent inspections in June 2023 showed bait application being utilized. The building's permit history shows at least one work-related permit issued in 2021, though specific details of the work were not provided in the available data.
