149 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

The three-story, three-unit building at 149 Washington Avenue in Clinton Hill, owned by Jeanne Dorancy, has a notable history concerning pest management and compliance. Built in 1901, this heretofore converted Class A building has experienced recurring bedbug-related compliance issues over the past four years.

Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four consecutive violations for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required by NYC Housing Maintenance Code, though all these violations have since been closed. Most recently, the building's bedbug filing for the period ending October 2024 indicated one infested dwelling unit (which was subsequently eradicated), while the previous year showed no infestations at all. The property has also had some concerns with rodent activity, evidenced by a rat activity finding in February 2025, followed by a compliance inspection in March 2025 that passed.

This suggests some initial rodent issues that were addressed within a month. The building's pest management record shows a pattern of compliance challenges, particularly with bedbug reporting, though the most recent filings indicate improved reporting adherence, despite the recent finding of one infested unit in June 2025. The property has been subject to regular regulatory scrutiny regarding pest management, with inspections occurring annually and reports being carefully monitored by housing authorities.
