1240 Pacific Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
At 1240 Pacific Street in Crown Heights, a 5-unit, 5-story Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Leonard Thomas, significant pest management challenges have emerged over recent years. The building has been subject to ongoing rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2025 confirming active rat presence, following numerous bait applications throughout 2024. Between March 2024 and July 2025, there were consistent rat activity reports, with multiple bait treatments administered, suggesting persistent infestations.
The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene documented rodent complaints in both 2023 and 2024, though these cases were closed due to previous complaints about the same location. The building's maintenance history reveals three Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2024, showing a lack of compliance with annual bedbug report filing obligations. While the 2021-2022 bedbug report indicated no infested units, the repeated violations suggest potential administrative oversight in recordkeeping.
Historical records from 1988 show past maintenance issues involving a broken chimney and missing pit covers, though these were resolved by 2019. The building's current focus remains on addressing the ongoing rodent problem, with multiple inspections and treatments indicating an active infestation management program though with limited success in achieving long-term resolution. For detailed rodent inspection results, the city advises using the online Rat Portal at www.nyc.gov/rats.
