AI summary · updated June 2026

20 Stagg Street is a 3-story, 11-unit old law tenement building located in Williamsburg and owned by Frank Lang. The building, constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, particularly involving water-related problems. Most notably, in 2023 there were three separate incidents of water leaks recorded between February and March, along with complaints about paint/plaster issues, though no violations were issued for these applications. The building has also faced heating system challenges, with two "No Heat/Hot Water" complaints in 2019 and 2021, though in the 2019 case, tenants reported that heat and hot water had been restored by the HPD's response time.

The building has undergone several inspections and faced multiple housing maintenance code violations, with the most recent being in 2024 involving bathroom issues in Apartment 8, including problems with water leaks, plaster surfaces, and caulking. Previous violations from 2022 indicated pest problems specifically in Apartment 8, and multiple units have experienced various maintenance issues ranging from plumbing concerns to door safety problems. However, the building has maintained a clean record in terms of bedbug infestations, with all recent bedbug reports from 2021 through 2025 indicating zero infested or re-infested units. The building has also passed multiple rodent inspections between 2018 and 2019, suggesting effective pest management, and records show regular bedbug reporting compliance.
