172 Stockholm Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The three-story, six-unit old law tenement building at 172 Stockholm Street in Bushwick, owned by Kiryat Stockholm LLC and constructed in 1931, has experienced recurring issues with building systems and maintenance concerns over the past several years. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building and individual apartments during late 2018 and late 2019, with violations issued in December 2019 regarding inadequate heat and gas supply specifically in Apartment 1L.

The building has also faced safety and maintenance challenges, including an August 2018 mold complaint (which resulted in no violations), and several violations identified in October 2018 related to fire safety and building code requirements in the first-story public hall, though these were all subsequently certified as corrected by December 2018. More recently, the building has undergone several rodent inspections, with the most recent in July 2025 showing "Rat Activity." Three rodent inspections in 2025 (January, February, and July) recorded rat activity, while inspections in 2024 and 2023 showed passed results.

The bedbug reporting records from 2020 through 2024 indicate no infestations or re-infestations in any dwelling units during this period, suggesting successful management of this particular pest issue. The building's recent inspection history shows ongoing challenges with rodent presence, though there have been periods of compliance with inspections passing as well. The frequent heat and hot water issues documented in 2018 and 2019, along with the current rodent activity, represent the most significant ongoing maintenance challenges for this property.
