522 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 522 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by James Tolley, has been subject to recurring administrative violations related to bedbug monitoring over the past four years, with open violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024, all citing non-filing of the required annual bedbug report as mandated by New York City's Housing Maintenance Code.

While these violations indicate a persistent issue with compliance regarding bedbug reporting requirements, it's worth noting that there is no indication of active bedbug infestations in the building. On a more positive note, the property has consistently passed rodent inspections in recent years, including most recently in June 2025, and prior inspections in May 2024, October 2022, and March 2019, suggesting effective pest management in terms of rodent control.

The building, constructed in 1910 and previously classified as a Class A building convert, has maintained its three-story structure and four-unit configuration throughout its documented history. While the open bedbug report violations represent the building's most significant maintenance concern, the regular passing of rodent inspections indicates generally good management of pest control systems.
