15 Douglass Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

The three-story, four-unit building at 15 Douglass Street in Carroll Gardens, owned by Ralph Guerra and constructed in 1920, has experienced consistent monitoring and compliance with bedbug reporting requirements over the past several years. The property has been subject to four Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024, all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules.

However, these violations have all been properly closed, indicating that the issues were addressed, though they reflect a period of non-compliance with important health and safety regulations. Recent records show that for the filing period from November 2023 to October 2024, the building reported zero infested dwelling units, zero units requiring eradication, and zero re-infested units, suggesting an effective management of potential pest issues in recent years.

This follows a similar pattern from the 2019-2020 filing period, where no bedbug infestations were reported. The absence of recurring infestations in the most recent filings, combined with the closure of previous violations, indicates improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, though the pattern of violations between 2021 and 2024 demonstrates that this was not always the case. The building's history suggests that while there were initial challenges with regulatory compliance and pest management, the situation appears to have stabilized with proper reporting and pest control measures now in place.
