12 Brighton 4th Terrace, Brooklyn, NY 11235

12 Brighton 4th Terrace is a two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Mohammad Arshad. The building has had persistent issues with compliance regarding bedbug reporting, with four open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 through 2024, all relating to failure to file the required annual bedbug reports. In 2021, there was a significant incident involving unpermitted work, with the Department of Buildings issuing violations for work conducted without proper permits, particularly concerning electrical panel and outlet modifications in the first-floor rear apartment.

This violation resulted in an active Environmental Control Board case with a penalty of $800. During the same period, there was another building maintenance violation related to combustible materials creating a fire hazard, though this was later resolved with a penalty of $625. The property has experienced recurring rodent-related issues, with the most recent 311 complaint about rodent signs in May 2021, though the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection that followed found no violations.

The building's rodent inspection history shows a mix of passed and failed inspections between 2009 and 2012, with one failure for "Other Reasons" in March 2011. An open violation from September 2021 remains active, related to the failure to certify correction of formerly hazardous (Class 1) ECB violations. While the building has undergone several inspections and received various violations over the years, it has generally passed most inspections, including recent rodent inspections, though the recurring bedbug report violation remains notable.
