254 Carlton Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

254 Carlton Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Fort Greene, constructed in 1866 and currently owned by Carlos Garcia. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, as evidenced by Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2021, 2022, and most recently in April 2024, all related to the requirement of filing annual bedbug reports.

It's notable that despite these violations, the bedbug report for the period of November 2021 to October 2022 indicates no infested units, though all three units had previously experienced infestations that were reportedly eradicated, with no subsequent re-infestations recorded. The building's history also shows an active Department of Buildings permit application from March 2019 for an undisclosed alteration work (permit sequence number 02, job number 301394435), which remains in process as of the current date.

The property has maintained a relatively low incidence of housing violations overall, with the primary concern being the pattern of bedbug report non-compliance rather than structural or safety issues. The most recent open violation from April 2024 suggests an ongoing challenge with maintaining compliance with HPD bedbug reporting requirements, though the absence of recorded infestations in the most recent filing period is a positive sign regarding pest management.
