312 South 4th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

312 South 4th Street is a 4-story, 4-unit residential building in Williamsburg, built in 1910 and currently owned by Alan Messner. The property has experienced several maintenance issues between late 2023 and mid-2024, with the most recent inspections in July 2024 revealing two open violations: one in Apartment 2 for a missing smoke detector and another in Apartment 4 for obstructions and defects in the kitchen sink.

The building has a documented history of various repairs and inspections, with multiple complaints filed through HPD, including issues with doors/windows, an electric/gas range, ventilation systems, and mold - though these complaints were generally closed with no violations found. Notably, there have been no recorded bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods (2019-2024), and the most recent rodent inspections show compliance, with only one incident of rat activity noted in December 2018, though an earlier inspection in 2011 also reported activity. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing various issues, with most complaints being resolved promptly.

The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting record since 2019, consistently showing no infestations. While the recent July 2024 violations indicate some ongoing maintenance needs, the building has generally demonstrated compliance with housing maintenance codes, as evidenced by the closure of numerous complaints and the successful filing of required reports. The pattern of violations suggests attention to compliance requirements, though the presence of open violations as of July 2024 indicates some ongoing maintenance needs that have yet to be fully addressed.
