108 Himrod Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The two-family house at 108 Himrod Street in Bushwick, owned by Omri Bar-mashiah, has a significant history since its construction in 1920. The most serious incident occurred in January 2019, when the building sustained fire damage affecting the roof and second floor. Following this, the property faced several regulatory challenges, including multiple Department of Buildings violations in 2019 related to using unauthorized construction methods to address the fire damage.

These violations were eventually dismissed in 2021 after compliance was demonstrated through proper permit documentation. Since the fire incident, the building has maintained a mostly stable record, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three filing periods (2021-2022, 2022-2023). There have been some pest-related concerns, including a rat sighting reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in December 2022, which resulted in identified violations requiring follow-up inspections.

The building has undergone several inspections in response to these issues, including two "CSE: Sweep" inspections in 2022, neither of which resulted in any violations. More recently, in June 2023, a building-related complaint regarding shaking/vibrating was investigated, but the vacate order was fully rescinded. While the property's historical issues were significant, particularly following the 2019 fire, the recent record shows improved conditions with no major safety concerns reported in the past two years.
