130 Diamond Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The 10-unit, 5-story building at 130 Diamond Street in Greenpoint, owned by Edward Vays and constructed in 2005, has experienced several notable issues over its history, particularly concerning maintenance and pest control. Most recently, in 2022, there was a heat and hot water complaint that required HPD intervention, though this issue was resolved within one day. The building has maintained an ongoing compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, as evidenced by four consecutive annual reports from 2022 through 2025 showing zero infested units or re-infestations.

However, there have been recurring issues with rodents; while recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 passed, there was rat activity noted in the February 2025 inspection, and the building underwent multiple bait applications between October and December 2018. The property has also experienced some administrative challenges, receiving multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were eventually closed. Two Department of Buildings violations from 2020-2021 were resolved.

The building's management has generally responded to issues as they arise, with most 311 complaints being addressed promptly, such as the heat/hot water issue in 2022. While the property has had its share of maintenance and pest control challenges, the most recent records indicate that these issues have been managed, with particular attention paid to compliance with bedbug reporting requirements. The current state of the building as of May 2025 shows improved conditions, with recent inspections generally passing for both rodent activity and bedbug reporting compliance.
