444 Himrod Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

444 Himrod Street is a three-story, six-unit residential building in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Urbano Guerrero. The building has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no documented infestations or required eradications in the past five reporting periods from 2019 through 2025.

While there were three Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2021-2023 regarding failure to file annual bedbug reports, these violations have since been closed and were followed by accurate and timely filings showing zero infested units. The building's rodent inspection history reveals a mixed record of compliance. Most recently, in March 2025, the building passed an initial rodent inspection, as did a compliance inspection in June 2024.

However, there was documented rat activity noted in April 2024, the first such occurrence in nearly a decade, following a compliance history of consecutive successful inspections from 2012 through 2023. Prior to 2024, the building had shown good maintenance practices with no recorded rodent violations since 2015. While these rodent incidents are concerning, it is worth noting that they appear to be isolated occurrences rather than persistent problems, with all subsequent inspections passing successfully.
