619 Vanderbilt Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238

619 Vanderbilt Avenue is a 3-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building located in Prospect Heights and owned by Richard Solomon. Built in 1898, the building's recent history shows consistent attention to pest management, particularly regarding bedbug reporting requirements mandated by the Housing Maintenance Code. The building has demonstrated compliance with these requirements, with the most recent report filed in April 2024 indicating no infested units during the reporting period of November 2022 to October 2023.

Previous reports from 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 had documented one infested unit each time, but in each instance, the infestations were addressed with all identified units being eradicated. The property has some active compliance issues that warrant attention. Most notably, there is an open violation as of June 30, 2023, related to the failure to file the 2021 external low-pressure inspection, which remains unresolved as of the latest available data.

In terms of rodent activity, the building has generally maintained good standards, passing inspections in May 2023-2025. However, it's worth noting a "Rat Activity" finding during a May 2023 inspection, which marked a departure from the previously clean record since 2018. The building's history shows regular compliance with housing maintenance codes, though there have been recurring notices of violation regarding timely bedbug report filings between 2021 and 2024, suggesting some delays in administrative compliance even when actual infestation rates have been relatively low.
