889 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

Located in Park Slope, 889 Union Street is a four-story, two-family house built in 1889 and currently owned by Janis Echenberg. The building has experienced several notable events regarding its maintenance and compliance history.

Most recently, in March 2022, the building received an A-class Housing Maintenance Code violation related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report, though this violation's current status is listed as closed. In terms of bedbug reporting, the property has demonstrated proper management of infestations, with three consecutive annual reports (2018-2019, 2019-2020, and 2020-2021) showing zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting effective pest control measures during this period.

The building's violations record also includes a Department of Buildings (DOB) issue from May 2019 regarding the failure to perform a Category 5 inspection, though this violation was dismissed in March 2023. Of particular concern are two rodent inspection reports from April and March 2011, which found rat activity in and around the building, marking the only recorded pest control issues in the property's history. While the building has had its share of compliance requirements and inspections, the most recent years show improved maintenance practices, with no recurring pest issues reported since the 2011 rodent inspections and six years of successful bedbug management compliance.
