235 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

The four-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building at 235 Pacific Street in Boerum Hill, owned by David Ettedgui, has experienced persistent pest control challenges, particularly with rodent activity, over the past several years. Most notably, between August and September 2024, there were multiple documented rat sightings, resulting in health department investigation and follow-up inspections.

The building has been under a recurring Health Code violation for failing to file annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, though records indicate no current active violations related to this requirement as of 2025. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent compliance inspection in May 2025 passing, though previous inspections throughout 2024 and earlier years consistently indicated rat activity or required bait application.

Two specific building complaints warranting mention occurred - a sidewalk shed issue in early 2025, and a vacant building concern in mid-2022, though both were investigated and no violations were found at the time of inspection. While the building's age (constructed in 1910) is typical for the area, the ongoing pest management challenges and historical violations related to bedbug reporting compliance suggest a need for continued monitoring of the building's maintenance and management practices.
