239 Front Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

The three-unit, three-story building at 239 Front Street in Vinegar Hill, owned by Douglas Schickler, is a 1852 Old Law Tenement that has demonstrated consistent compliance with key housing maintenance requirements over the past several years. Most notably, the building has maintained a perfect record in its bedbug reporting, with all nine annual filings from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units, indicating effective pest management and prevention practices.

The building also received a housing maintenance code violation in February 2022 related to the filing of an annual bedbug report, though this violation appears to have been resolved, given the subsequent consistent filings. The property has demonstrated strong rodent control measures, passing all six initial rodent inspections conducted between 2013 and 2025, with the most recent inspections in January 2025 and February 2024 showing continued compliance.

The building's maintenance record suggests regular oversight and prompt addressal of any emerging issues, with no significant patterns of concern emerging over the past several years. While the building is classified under the Old Law Tenement category, which typically includes New York City's earlier multi-family dwellings, its recent inspection and violation history indicates proper management and maintenance practices are being observed, particularly in terms of bedbug and rodent management.
