429 Humboldt Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211
The three-story, three-unit residential tenement at 429 Humboldt Street in Williamsburg, owned by Bill Lika, has experienced a series of concerning maintenance issues over recent years, particularly from 2022-2024. Most notably, there are several open Housing Maintenance Code violations as of 2024, including issues with heat supply, heating system access, and a pest infestation in the first-floor apartment. The building has also faced recurring heating and plumbing problems, with multiple emergency complaints regarding radiators and heat/hot water issues in 2024, though inspectors often encountered access issues during these investigations.
Additional violations include concerns about carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, door security, and a possibly problematic bedbug reporting requirement for 2024. The property's maintenance history reveals a pattern of water-related issues, including both heavy and slow leaks documented in 2023, with some plumbing emergencies recorded in 2024. There were also multiple complaints in June 2022 regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold, pests, and garbage storage issues, though not all could be verified due to access problems.
An environmental violation from 2022 regarding the building's entrance awning remains active as of 2023, with a penalty of $500. While the building's bedbug reporting for the 2021-2022 period showed no infestations, the rodent inspections in 2016 indicated previous rat activity, though a subsequent compliance inspection passed. The property has been subject to scrutiny for potentially unauthorized alterations, with a 2018 illegal conversion complaint being recorded, though access was not granted for inspection.
