452 Harman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

452 Harman Street is a 5-story, 6-unit residential building constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Gorav Khanna. The property has undergone significant construction activity between 2018-2019, during which multiple violations were recorded related to safety and work practices.

Notable incidents during this period included several Stop Work Orders, multiple violations for failing to maintain safety measures including inadequate overhead protection and missing guard rails, and issues with maintaining proper construction supervision. The Department of Buildings issued several violations requiring immediate cessation of work and fines totaling over $25,000 for safety-related infractions, though records indicate these violations were subsequently resolved. The building's more recent history shows improved maintenance standards, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past four years (2020-2023) and consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements.

However, there has been some ongoing rodent activity noted in recent inspections, with the most recent rat activity observation occurring in April 2024, though a subsequent inspection in June 2025 showed compliance. The property has experienced minimal housing maintenance violations in recent years, with the most notable being a 2022 violation regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, which was later closed. While the building has a history of construction-related issues and safety violations, the most recent records suggest improved compliance with housing maintenance requirements and reduced pest control issues, though periodic rodent activity remains a concern.
