52 Herbert Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

52 Herbert Street is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building in Williamsburg, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Christy Turner. The building's recent history shows recurring administrative issues regarding bedbug reporting compliance, with violations noted annually from 2021 through 2024, though the most recent report for the 2023-2024 period indicates no infested or re-infested units. Between 2019 and 2021, there were multiple Building Department violations, primarily related to failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous violations, though these were ultimately dismissed.

The property experienced a series of construction-related complaints in 2021, including several regarding work without permits and after-hours work, along with two complaints about work contrary to stop work orders, though all were found to have no violations warranting action. The building's maintenance history includes rodent activity identified during inspections in late 2019, followed by a passed compliance inspection. Multiple permits were issued between 2018 and 2021 for various work types, including plumbing, electrical, and alteration work, with the most recent permits dated December 2021 through April 2022.

While the recurring bedbug reporting violations are noteworthy, it is significant that the most recent bedbug report shows no current infestations. The building's complaint records indicate active management responses to various maintenance issues, though many complaints were found to be unsubstantiated upon inspection. The property has generally maintained compliance with rodent control requirements following the initial rodent activity discovery in 2019.
