24 St Marks Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 24 St Marks Place in Gowanus, owned by Rosa Bajana, has a documented history spanning several years, with the most significant recent concerns centered around compliance with bedbug reporting requirements. The property, constructed in 1899 and classified as an Old Law Tenement, has consistently received Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 through 2024, all relating to the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

These violations have remained open, indicating ongoing non-compliance with this specific regulatory requirement. A more serious prior incident occurred in September 2018, when the building was cited for unauthorized construction work, with the Department of Buildings noting that the basement had been illegally converted into a Class A apartment with full-height partitions, bathroom, and kitchen facilities independent of the rest of the dwelling.

While this violation was ultimately resolved with no penalties imposed, it suggests past concerns about unauthorized modifications to the building. On a positive note, the property has passed multiple rodent inspections between March 2018 and September 2019, though these inspections are now several years old. The building's documented history shows recurring issues with compliance to specific regulatory requirements, particularly regarding bedbug reporting, warranting attention to the property's ongoing management practices.
