144 West 9th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

The three-unit, three-story residential building at 144 West 9th Street in Carroll Gardens, owned by Joseph Gagliardo, has experienced ongoing pest management challenges over recent years. Most notably, the property has four consecutive annual violations from 2021 to 2024 related to the failure to file required annual bedbug reports under Housing Maintenance Code, for which no certification has been recorded.

The building has also experienced recent rodent activity, with two complaints made to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in late 2023 - one regarding rat sightings in October (which passed inspection with minor violations) and another in December concerning conditions attracting rodents. While there have been some successful rodent inspections (most recently in December 2023, which passed), the property has a documented history of rodent-related issues with a failed inspection in September 2012.

The building, constructed in 1901, is classified as an Old Law Tenement and has undergone various inspections over the years. The most recent rodent-related inspections indicate some level of ongoing monitoring and response to pest issues, though the consistent pattern of violations regarding bedbug report filings suggests administrative compliance challenges. The property has maintained basic compliance with rodent inspections more recently, as evidenced by the December 2023 passing inspection, though this follows previous complaints and a documented history of pest-related issues.
