274A 9th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

274A 9th Street is a 3-story, 4-unit residential building located in Brooklyn's South Slope neighborhood, constructed in 1899 and currently owned by Ithak Katan. The property has experienced several recurring issues related to bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations for failure to file annual bedbug reports noted in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024.

The building has a history of pest control challenges, particularly in 2014-2015, when multiple inspections revealed rat activity, though a passed rodent inspection in November 2019 indicated some improvement. The Department of Buildings records show one significant incident in 2019 involving an oil leak due to worker damage to a fuel tank, resulting in a $12,500 violation, and another during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 with ongoing construction activities that incurred a $5,000 penalty.

Between 2021 and 2022, there were multiple Construction Site Surveillance (CSE) sweeps conducted, though each resulted in "No Violation Warranted For Complaint At Time Of Inspection." The building has had consistent permit activity, with multiple permits issued for various work types between 2018 and 2023, including several "AL" (Alteration) and "PL" (Plumbing) permits, with the most recent permits issued in April 2023. An inspection for Local Law 188/17 Compliance in March 2020 required a second final attempt, suggesting access issues for inspectors. While most recent housing maintenance code violations and complaints have been primarily administrative in nature, the property's persistent bedbug reporting non-compliance remains an ongoing issue as of 2024.
