142 Nelson Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231
142 Nelson Street is a three-story, three-unit old-law tenement building located in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. Built in 1901 and currently owned by Christopher Lenox, this property has maintained an active history of bedbug reporting requirements over the past several years.
Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four consecutive Class A violations for failure to file the annual bedbug report as mandated by NYC Housing Maintenance Code, with the most recent violation occurring in April 2024. These violations, while concerning, have all been marked as "Close" in the violation status.
However, as of January 2025, the building has successfully submitted its bedbug report for the period starting November 1, 2023, through October 31, 2024, indicating no units experienced infestation during this reporting period. The report shows zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting that the building has maintained a bedbug-free status for at least this recent monitoring period. While the pattern of violations in previous years indicates a history of compliance challenges, the successful filing of the 2023-2024 bedbug report demonstrates improved adherence to city regulations.
