331 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-story, three-unit building at 331 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Sandra Glasgow, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges since 2019, with particular attention required for its bedbug reporting compliance and security features. While the building was constructed in 1905 and has since been converted to Class A status, it currently holds multiple open Class A violations, dating back to 2021, regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.

More concerning, the property has undergone regular rodent baiting treatments throughout 2024-2025, with at least two confirmed instances of rat activity recorded in early 2025, suggesting an ongoing pest management challenge. The building's documented maintenance history shows a pattern of unresolved issues, particularly from 2019, when multiple violations were recorded related to security concerns in Unit 2, including defective self-closing doors and broken locksets.

Additional general maintenance violations from 2019 include defective plaster surfaces and painting issues in the public hall areas on both the first and second stories. Despite these open violations and maintenance needs, records indicate bait applications were conducted regularly in 2024 and 2025, with the most recent treatment occurring in July 2025, suggesting an active but ongoing effort to address the rodent situation, though previous inspection results showed confirmed rat activity as recently as January 2025.
