185 Classon Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205
185 Classon Avenue is a 3-unit, 3-story Old Law Tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, built in 1901 and currently owned by Dominick Leon. The property has experienced persistent pest management challenges in recent years, with the most recent rodent-related incidents occurring in January 2025 involving multiple complaints about rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents.
These complaints were preceded by several similar reports throughout 2024, indicating an ongoing rodent problem. Inspection records show rat activity was confirmed in compliance inspections in July 2024 and December 2024, though an October 2022 initial inspection passed without any noted issues. The building has also been cited for an open housing maintenance code violation that has persisted since 2021 relating to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report.
While this violation is somewhat distinct from the more recent rodent issues, it indicates potential challenges with maintaining comprehensive pest control protocols. The property, which has multiple properties under its ownership since 1998, continues to struggle with both rodent and bedbug reporting requirements, as evidenced by the failure to resolve these violations over multiple years and through various inspection cycles. Recent rodent inspections in 2024 and early 2025 have confirmed ongoing rat activity, suggesting that while some individual complaints may be addressed, the underlying issues require continued attention.
