154 South 4th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

154 South 4th Street in Williamsburg is a 3-story, 4-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Moses Shafidiya. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug report compliance, as evidenced by four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024, all citing failure to file the required annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD rules.

This pattern of non-compliance raises concerns about the building's pest management practices. The elevator system also appears to be in need of attention, with an active Department of Buildings violation from April 2019 regarding failure to file the required Category 1 inspection/test results from 2017.

The building has a documented history of rodent activity, particularly between 2018 and 2021, with multiple inspections indicating the presence of rats and the application of bait to address the issue. The most recent 311 service request in July 2021 reported a rat sighting, which prompted a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection that resulted in violations requiring follow-up inspections. While there have been some periods of apparent compliance with rodent control measures, such as a passed inspection in June 2019, the recurring violations and ongoing open violations related to both bedbug reporting and elevator inspection requirements suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges at the property.
