259 Sumpter Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The three-story, two-unit building at 259 Sumpter Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Gregg Telsey, has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance events over the past few years. Most notably, in April 2021, multiple violations were documented including issues with self-closing doors, fire safety measures, and an incomplete bedbug report, though all of these violations have since been closed.

The building has maintained an active schedule of bedbug reporting compliance from 2020 through 2023, with no reported infestations in any of the annual filings. Between 2015-2016, there was documented rodent activity with multiple bait applications and inspections showing rat presence during the summer of 2015, though a successful passing inspection in November 2016 suggests this issue was addressed. The building's permit history shows active maintenance and improvement efforts, with multiple permits issued between 2019-2020 for various works including plumbing and electrical installations.

A complaint filed in April 2019 regarding unauthorized work was inspected the same day and found to be unsubstantiated based on department records. The property's most recent bedbug reporting period (2022-2023) and previous filings show consistent compliance with city regulations, maintaining a record of zero infested or re-infested units. The building underwent several compliance inspections between 2015-2021, with most recent violations being primarily related to safety features such as fire escape maintenance and door hardware, rather than structural or habitability concerns.
