150 Pulaski Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The four-story, eight-unit residential building at 150 Pulaski Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Haydee Cortes, has a concerning pattern of maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, the building has multiple open Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024.

These unresolved violations raise important questions about the building's pest management practices. In mid-2022, the building experienced a heat and hot water emergency affecting the entire structure, though this issue was promptly addressed within two days. More recently, there is an open Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2020 external low-pressure inspection.

The property has been subject to regular rodent inspections, with the most recent results from 2025 indicating rat activity in February 2025 and an initial inspection showing the same result in February 2025. While there were some passed inspections in the previous years (2022-2024), the recent rodent activity suggests an ongoing pest control challenge. Despite these various maintenance issues, it's worth noting that the property has demonstrated some basic responsiveness to heat and hot water emergencies, as evidenced by the prompt resolution of the October 2022 complaint.
