489A Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The three-story residential building at 489A Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Leslie Harris, has been facing recurring regulatory compliance issues over the past several years.
Most notably, there is a consistent pattern of violations related to the annual bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024, indicating the property has not complied with the Housing Maintenance Code requirement to file these mandatory reports with HPD. The building, which contains two units and was constructed in 1899, has experienced varying rodent activity as evidenced by inspections between 2022 and 2025.
While the building passed rodent inspections in 2022 and 2024, most recently in June 2025, there was confirmed rat activity during an initial inspection, marking a concerning change in sanitation conditions. Despite these documented issues, there are no recorded complaints or violations related to other major resident health or safety concerns, though the bedbug reporting noncompliance represents a recurring administrative oversight by management.
