109 President Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

109 President Street is a 4-unit, three-story Old Law Tenement building located in the Columbia Street neighborhood and owned by Anthony Gaudioso. The building has a notable pattern of bedbug report violations, with open Class A violations for failing to file annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD rules from 2021 through 2024.

The property is currently facing multiple significant construction-related issues, including an active Environmental Control Board violation from April 2024 with a $2,500 penalty for non-conforming construction work involving new wood joints throughout the building, and three open housing maintenance code violations related to unpermitted construction work in occupied multiple dwellings between 2023 and 2025. Recent inspections in 2025 have revealed ongoing concerns, including an April 2025 Special Operations Compliance Inspection that resulted in an Oath Violation, and a sidewalk shed/scaffold-related issue that received a Stop Work Order before being fully rescinded. The building's construction history shows several complaints regarding work without proper permits during late 2023 and 2024, though most of these inspections found no violations at the time.

Historical records indicate a rodent inspection pattern in 2014-2016, with initial failures followed by passing grades, suggesting previous pest management challenges that may have been addressed. In summary, the property has persistent regulatory compliance issues, particularly regarding bedbug reporting and recent construction work, with some progress in rodent management noted in earlier inspections. The most pressing current concerns appear to be centered around unauthorized construction activities and the housing maintenance code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, which have remained unresolved over multiple inspection cycles.
