439 Bleecker Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
439 Bleecker Street is a four-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Alexander Horn. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues, with the most recent rat activity documented during inspections in May 2025 and March 2025, following several previous instances of infestation. The building has also faced notable heating and hot water system challenges, particularly in late 2021 and late 2022, though most recent heating complaints from 2024 were resolved promptly.
A significant cluster of maintenance issues was documented in June 2024, including non-functioning safety devices such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, unsanitary conditions related to pests, and various violations in Apartment 1R including lead paint hazards, mold, and door-related problems, all of which were subsequently addressed and closed by July 2024. The building's history shows consistent rodent inspections, with varying results, though the most recent inspections in 2025 indicate ongoing pest management challenges. Recent inspections from 2024-2025 have revealed multiple categories of violations including safety concerns (defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors), pest infestations, and physical maintenance issues such as lead paint concerns and door problems.
Despite these challenges, the property has maintained a consistent record of addressing violations once identified, with most being certified as corrected within reasonable timeframes. Notably, no bedbug infestations have been reported in the past seven years according to the state's bedbug reporting system, which shows consistent reports of zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units from 2019-2025. While the building's history demonstrates persistent maintenance challenges, particularly regarding pests and heating systems, recent inspections suggest improved responsiveness to violations once they are identified, though ongoing rodent activity remains a concern according to the latest reports.
