197A 29th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232
The two-story, three-unit residential building at 197A 29th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Douglas Ashford, has several noteworthy concerns as of July 2025.
Most significantly, there is an open Class A Housing Maintenance Code violation related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with this violation remaining unresolved since at least 2021 and recurring annually through 2024. These ongoing violations suggest a persistent issue with compliance regarding bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code.
The building has also experienced recurring issues with standing water, with three documented complaints to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) between 2019 and 2021, though inspections in 2019 and 2021 did not result in violations being found, with one complaint still marked "In Progress" as of July 2021. Given the age of the building (1905) and its classification as a "New Law Tenement," its maintenance history shows some pattern of water-related issues and potential pest management oversight, though it's worth noting that no recent inspection violations have been documented since 2024.
