70 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The three-story, two-unit building at 70 Hancock Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Evon Southerland, has faced persistent pest management challenges over the past few years. Most significantly, the building has undergone regular bedbug violation inspections since 2021, with the most recent violation in April 2024 related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report, though subsequent filings indicate no current infestation, with zero infested or re-infested units reported in the 2024 filing.
The property has a documented history of rodent issues, particularly during late 2023 and early 2024, showing a pattern of bait application as recently as February 2025. Notably, a "Rat Activity" violation was recorded in January 2024, followed by multiple bait application treatments throughout 2024.
Despite these challenges, recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have passed, suggesting some improvement in pest management compliance. The building, constructed in 1880 and now classified as Hereafter Converted Class B, has maintained its two-unit configuration throughout these recorded events, with no other significant violations or complaints on file during this period.
