461 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 461 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Augustin Tella, has a concerning track record over the past several years. Most notably, the building has accrued multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded annually from 2021 through 2024, indicating a persistent pattern of non-compliance with mandatory bedbug reporting protocols.
The building has also experienced significant rodent issues, particularly in early 2025, with multiple bait applications occurring in January of that year. While a June 2025 compliance inspection passed, prior to that, the building showed rat activity in both the July 2024 compliance inspection and the June 2024 initial inspection.
An earlier October 2022 rodent inspection did pass, but the recent pattern of bait application and rat activity suggests ongoing pest control challenges. The building, constructed in 1899, has maintained its classification as a "Heretofore Converted Class A" structure, though the specific implications of this designation are less relevant to current tenant conditions compared to the documented pest-related issues.
