263 Hicks Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

263 Hicks Street is a four-story, five-unit residential building located in Brooklyn Heights, constructed in 1879 and currently owned by Gloria Furman. The building has experienced consistent monitoring and reporting regarding bedbug activity over the past several years, with the most recent violations occurring in April 2024, March 2023, February 2022, and April 2021, all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code.

However, it's notable that all three subsequent bedbug report filings (2024, 2023, and 2021) demonstrated commendable results, with zero reported infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management protocols have been implemented following these violations. The building has maintained a positive record in terms of pest control, with successful rodent inspections conducted in February 2023, September 2015, and February 2013, all passing without incident.

The most recent bedbug report filing in May 2024 covered the period from November 2022 to October 2023, once again showing no evidence of bedbug infestation during that timeframe. While the building's history shows recurring administrative issues related to bedbug report filings between 2021 and 2024, the subsequent resolutions and lack of actual infestations indicate that these violations were more procedural than indicative of a persistent pest problem. The property appears to be well-maintained in terms of actual pest control, as evidenced by the passing rodent inspections and the absence of noted bedbug infestations in recent years.
