396 Butler Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 396 Butler Street in Park Slope, owned by James Palmaro and constructed in 1986, has shown consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements over the past three years. Recent filings from 2023 through mid-2025 demonstrate that there have been no reported cases of infestation during these periods, with the most recent report (July 2025) showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units.

This follows a pattern of four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024, all related to the requirement to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations appear to have been resolved based on subsequent compliance. The building's rodent history shows a mixed record, with a passed inspection in July 2018 indicating no current rodent issues.

However, there were documented rat activity issues in late 2009, with evidence of problems noted during both an initial inspection in October and a follow-up compliance inspection in December of that year. Since that time, there have been no further rodent violations or activity reported. The property's relatively recent bedbug reporting compliance and lack of persistent infestation problems over the past few years suggest adequate pest management practices, though the building's history of both rodent and bedbug compliance issues indicates a past history of pest management challenges.
