469 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205
469 Lafayette Avenue is a three-story, four-unit residential building constructed in 1949, currently owned by Shalom Nove and classified as a "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" property. The building has experienced persistent issues with maintaining proper pest control compliance, as evidenced by open violations from 2021 through 2024 regarding the failure to file mandatory annual bedbug reports with the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).
More concerning is the recent pattern of rodent activity, with multiple inspections in 2023-2025 consistently showing rat presence, including eight initial inspections and three baiting events between January 2023 and July 2025. The building's historical violation record shows both resolved and ongoing issues affecting resident safety and comfort.
A cluster of violations in 2016, all of which were eventually certified as resolved by December 2020, included significant safety concerns in Apartment 1 (located on the first floor) such as inadequate hot water supply, non-compliant fire-rated entrance door, defective fire egress, and issues with window escape routes. In July 2018, two violations were recorded regarding encumbrances consisting of bicycles in public hall areas on the second and third stories, though these were eventually closed. The building's documented history suggests ongoing challenges with both pest management and building safety compliance, particularly during recent years.
