204 Kent Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

204 Kent Street is a three-story, six-unit residential building located in Greenpoint, built in 1930 and currently owned by Andrzej Roth. The property has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over the past decade.

Most recently, in June 2023, the building received multiple active violations from the Department of Buildings for failing to file external low pressure inspections for the years 2018-2020, and in November 2019 there was a similar violation for failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report. The building has shown a concerning pattern of rodent-related issues, with rat activity documented in inspections in November and December 2022, and an earlier rat sighting complaint in November 2022 that resulted in health department violations requiring follow-up inspections. Additional health concerns were noted in late 2018 when two emergency mold complaints were filed, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development found no violations at that time.

Despite these issues, the building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management, with no reported infestations in the annual bedbug reports filed between 2022 and 2024, showing zero infested or re-infested units and successful eradication of any affected units. The property underwent a compliance inspection for rodent activity in December 2022 which noted rat activity, though this was two months after the initial inspection that documented similar findings. While the building has experienced several maintenance challenges, particularly regarding inspection compliance and rodent issues, it has demonstrated proper reporting and management of bedbug-related concerns.
