206 Hancock Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
206 Hancock Street is a three-story, six-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, and owned by Calrice Wright. The 1884 brownstone has experienced recurring issues with rodent activity, with multiple rat sightings reported between 2021 and 2025, including recent inspections in March and April 2025 showing evidence of rat activity. The building's maintenance record shows consistent annual bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2025, with no confirmed infestations or eradications during any reporting period.
However, serious concerns exist regarding the building's external low-pressure system maintenance, with six active violations (dating back to 2018-2023) for failing to file required inspections, with the most recent violation issued in September 2024. The building's heating system has also experienced documented maintenance issues, with a violation for failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report listed as active since January 2020. The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections since 2022, with variable results showing both passed inspections and instances of rat activity.
While some periods show compliance with rodent control measures, the most recent 2025 inspections indicate ongoing rodent presence. The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting requirements, with no documented infestations, and has consistently passed initial rodent inspections when conducted. The pattern of violations related to external low-pressure system inspections suggests a significant ongoing maintenance oversight, though this may not directly impact resident health and safety compared to the more concerning rodent presence issues.
