Augrented Insights Report for 185 Withers Street

185 Withers Street is a 3-story, 4-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1899 in Williamsburg, currently owned by Withers Street LLC. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues in recent years, with the most recent DOHMH inspection in April 2025 passing but showing previous rat activity in 2024 and 2023. The building has an open Housing Maintenance Code violation from 2024 requiring the submission of annual bedbug reports, which has been an ongoing requirement since at least 2021.

The property underwent significant construction activity between 2020-2023, during which time multiple safety violations were recorded, including inadequate pedestrian protection and construction safety measures. In September 2023, work was temporarily halted due to contractor withdrawal, though permits were subsequently reissued in 2024-2025. The building has undergone several permit processes between 2020-2025, with multiple approvals for plumbing and alteration work.

Environmental Control Board violations were issued in 2022 regarding various safety and construction issues, including improper electrical work and inadequate pedestrian protection, resulting in penalties totaling over $12,000, though records indicate these were resolved. The property has been subject to regular inspections and 311 complaints, primarily related to construction activities and rodent sightings. While most complaints have been closed with no violations found, the frequency of rodent-related issues and open bedbug report violation suggests ongoing pest management concerns. The building's age and location in Williamsburg indicate it has undergone typical urban maintenance challenges, with recent years showing particular attention to construction safety compliance and pest management.
