519 Chauncey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The 5-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 519 Chauncey Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Hollis Pritchard and constructed in 1901, has experienced recurring issues with pest-related violations over recent years. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of bedbug reporting non-compliance, with open violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently 2024, each citing the building owner's failure to submit the required annual bedbug report as mandated by Housing Maintenance Code § HMC.

The most recent service request, filed in October 2024 regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests, resulted in an HPD inspection attempt where the inspector was unable to gain access, though a card was left and follow-up correspondence was sent to encourage rescheduling of the inspection. The building's pest control history shows a concerning trajectory, with the most recent complaints in 2024 suggesting persistent issues.

While earlier records from 2018-2019 indicate successful rodent inspections during that period, the focus in recent years has shifted to bedbug reporting compliance and pest complaints. The HPD's attempts to address the most recent complaint in October 2024 were met with access issues, and there have been no documented successful resolutions to the ongoing bedbug report violations spanning multiple years. This pattern of violations and complaints indicates a significant and unresolved ongoing pest management issue in the building.
