Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The 19 Vernon Avenue property in Bedford-Stuyvesant is a three-story, three-unit building owned by Derron Alexander and constructed in 1899, now classified as a Class A residential building. The building's significant recent history primarily revolves around compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 to 2024 all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules. However, the most recent bedbug report filing for the period ending October 31, 2024, indicates zero infested units, suggesting successful eradication efforts. The building has maintained a strong record in other essential areas, with regular rodent inspections conducted every six months from 2020 to 2025 showing consistent passing results, indicating effective pest management. A zoning-related complaint from December 2018 regarding an illegally parked vehicle in the front yard was resolved through an Oath Violation in July 2019, though this incident appears to have been an isolated occurrence with no lasting impact on the building's operations or resident experience.
