235 9th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The three-unit, three-story Old Law Tenement building at 235 9th Street in Gowanus, owned by Dimitri Lafortune, has experienced recurring issues with pest management and maintenance compliance over the past several years. Most notably, there is an ongoing series of open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports in accordance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements, with violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024.
The building has also faced rodent infestation challenges, with multiple inspections in 2020 showing rat activity in September, October, and December, though a bait application was conducted in January 2021. A complaint regarding blocked egress was filed in November 2019, but no violations were found during the inspection.
The building's violation history suggests ongoing challenges with compliance to required pest management protocols, particularly concerning both bedbug reporting and rodent control, though these issues appear to be somewhat seasonal in nature. The most recent open violation regarding bedbug reporting from April 2024 indicates this compliance issue persists into 2025. While the rat activity seemed to have been addressed with bait application in early 2021, the pattern of multiple rodent inspections in 2020 suggests this was a notable building concern at that time.
