442 Carlton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The three-unit residential building at 442 Carlton Avenue in Fort Greene, owned by Jean Francois Duval and constructed in 1996, has an established pattern of non-compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements regarding annual bedbug reporting over the past several years. Most notably, there are four consecutive open violations from 2021 through 2024, all citing the same issue related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD regulations.

While these violations, documented through Notices of Violation (NOVs), are administrative in nature, they represent an ongoing issue with compliance to bedbug reporting requirements. The building's safety record shows one positive inspection outcome, with a rodent inspection conducted in June 2018 resulting in a "Passed" designation, indicating no rodent issues were present at that time.

The property has been free of other documented violations or major incidents, with the exception of the recurring bedbug report compliance issues. The most recent bedbug report violation from April 2024 remains open, continuing the pattern of non-compliance that has persisted for several years. While these violations do not necessarily indicate an active bedbug infestation in the building, they do suggest challenges with maintaining compliance to HPD reporting requirements.
