159 South Oxford Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217

159 South Oxford Street is a three-unit, three-story residential building located in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, owned by David Baker and constructed in 1995. The building's recent inspection history reveals a consistent pattern of bedbug reporting violations, with four consecutive notices of violation (NOVs) issued between 2021 and 2024, all of which have been marked as closed.

These violations specifically related to the building owner's failure to file the required annual bedbug reports with the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). However, it's worth noting that the official bedbug reporting records for the building show no documented cases of infestation during the reporting periods from 2019-2020 through 2022-2023, with the filings indicating zero infested dwelling units, zero units requiring eradication, and zero instances of re-infestation.

The building underwent a successful rodent inspection in July 2018, receiving a passing result, which suggests good maintenance of vermin control at that time. While the repeated bedbug reporting violations indicate some administrative lapses regarding compliance with HPD requirements, the actual pest control records demonstrate that the building has maintained a bedbug-free status throughout the recorded periods. The most recent violation was issued in April 2024, though its current status date is not specified, and it appears to be part of the same regulatory pattern seen in previous years rather than indicating any new infestation concerns.
