79 Douglass Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

The four-story, eight-unit residential building at 79 Douglass Street in Carroll Gardens, owned by Sigfredo Rivera and constructed in 1920, has been increasingly non-compliant with Housing Maintenance Code requirements over the past four years.

Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent violation issued in April 2024, and similar violations documented in March 2023, February 2022, and April 2021. All of these violations fall under Section HMC, specifically regarding the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules.

Each of these violations remains open as of the current date, with none having been certified as resolved. The building's persistent failure to comply with this particular regulation over multiple years suggests a troubling pattern of non-compliance with housing safety requirements, though it's important to note that this specific violation relates to reporting requirements rather than direct evidence of an active pest infestation.
