469 Hicks Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

The three-story, three-unit old law tenement building at 469 Hicks Street in Cobble Hill, owned by Antonio Hernandez, has maintained a relatively stable record over the past several years. The building, constructed in 1901, has undergone regular monitoring for bedbug activity, with violations noted in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024 regarding the failure to file timely annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.

However, significantly, all subsequent bedbug reports from 2022 through 2025 (most recent filing in June 2025) have indicated zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting successful management of this pest concern after previous violations. The building's rodent inspections present a mixed history, with initial evidence of rat activity noted in June 2019, though the follow-up compliance inspection in July 2019 resulted in a passing grade.

Earlier records from 2009 show similar patterns, with one initial inspection failing for unspecified reasons, but this was followed by a passing compliance inspection later that year. The most recent bedbug reporting period (2024-2025) shows consistent compliance with no reported infestations, indicating effective ongoing maintenance practices. The property seems to have addressed its pest management issues adequately since 2019, with no new violations or pest reports in the past several years apart from the initial bedbug reporting violations which have since been rectified.
