289 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The four-story, three-unit residential building at 289 Nostrand Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Arthur Sookra, has a mixed record of compliance with housing regulations since its construction in 1931. Most notably, there are persistent issues with bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations recorded in 2024, 2023, and 2022 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by Housing Maintenance Code.
While the building's most recent bedbug report from March 2021 (covering November 2019 to October 2020) showed zero infested units with all three previously infested units having been successfully eradicated, the ongoing violation status suggests ongoing compliance challenges. On a more positive note, the building has maintained an exemplary record in rodent control inspections, passing every inspection conducted from 2019 through 2025, including the most recent rodent inspection in May 2025.
This consistent compliance with rodent control measures indicates effective maintenance of building sanitation standards in this regard. The building's overall history shows attention to pest management, though the recurring bedbug report compliance violations warrant monitoring of the property's administrative adherence to housing regulations.
