1541 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11213

The three-story, three-unit building at 1541 Pacific Street in Crown Heights, owned by Joyce Gooding and constructed in 1879, has experienced persistent issues over recent years, particularly regarding pest management compliance. Most notably, the property has accumulated multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file mandatory annual bedbug reports, with open violations recorded in both 2023 and 2024, continuing a pattern that began in 2021.

This recurring noncompliance suggests ongoing challenges with adhering to housing maintenance requirements. The building has also faced significant rodent control issues, particularly evident in 2022, when seven bait inspections were conducted between May and August, with several instances of rat activity documented during this period.

The pattern shows an initial inspection in May 2022 revealing rat activity, followed by four consecutive bait applications from June to September 2022 where bait was applied. While there was a passage of inspections in later years (the last recorded rodent inspection in 2018 shows a passing result), the concentration of rodent-related findings in 2022 indicates a period of concerted pest control efforts. The combination of unresolved bedbug report violations and historical rodent activity, particularly during 2022, highlights ongoing challenges with pest management at this property, though it's worth noting that no new violations have been recorded since 2024.
