93 Knickerbocker Avenue is a 6-unit, 3-story old law tenement building constructed in 1931 in Williamsburg, currently owned by Sam Rub. The property has experienced several notable issues in recent years, with the most pressing being heating and hot water problems reported in April 2025, which were not able to be verified by HPD inspection due to access issues. There is an active violation regarding failure to file required annual boiler inspection reports dating back to 2018, with penalties exceeding $3,100 as of September 2024. The building has maintained an active pest management record, with bedbug inspections consistently reporting zero infested units between 2019 and 2025.
Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 and 2022 indicate late filing of bedbug reports, and there have been multiple heat and hot water-related complaints, including a recent emergency complaint in April 2025. The property has experienced rodent activity as recently as October 2024, following an earlier instance in November 2024, marking a concerning pattern of pest issues. There are several ongoing Department of Buildings violations related to the failure to submit required external low-pressure boiler inspection reports for multiple years from 2018 through 2023, though the building has been diligent in addressing bedbug reporting requirements in recent filings, showing zero infestations in the past several years.
