75 Hanson Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The 8-unit, 3-story building at 75 Hanson Place in Fort Greene, owned by Yesenia Munoz and constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance and health-related issues over the past few years. Most recently, in early 2024, the building faced rodent-related challenges with inspections showing rat activity in both January and March. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) found violations during a January 2024 inspection, indicating an ongoing pest control concern.

In 2023, there were notable incidents involving a sewage leak (which could not be fully investigated due to access issues) and another rat sighting that resulted in no violations being found during inspection. The building's 2021 summer period was marked by multiple infrastructure and health concerns, including violations related to water leaks (both heavy flow and slow), mold, and pest infestations, though some related inspections found no violations. The property also faced administrative oversight issues, with active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations as of June 2023 for failing to file its 2018 and 2019 external low-pressure inspections.

However, records show diligent bedbug reporting, with the most recent filings in 2024 showing no infested units. The building has a history of alternating rodent activity and compliance inspections dating back to 2016, suggesting an ongoing battle with pest management. During 2022, several administrative violations were noted regarding safety and notification requirements, including bedbug reporting and carbon monoxide detector requirements, though most of these were subsequently closed or dismissed. The property has also maintained an active schedule of bedbug reporting, consistently showing zero infested units since 2019, and has permits related to exterior work issued through 2019.
