619 Union Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The three-story, six-unit old law tenement at 619 Union Avenue in Greenpoint, owned by Nando Niola, has a documented history dating back to 1910. The building has experienced several housing maintenance code violations between 2018 and 2021, with the most recent being a 2021 violation related to the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this violation has since been closed.

In March 2018, multiple violations were recorded, including the need for proper gas leak notification procedures and the requirement to post housing information guide notices in multiple languages. During this same inspection period, a specific violation was noted regarding mold-like damage and dampness on the kitchen floor of apartment 2R, though this was also subsequently addressed. Impressively, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations over the past five reporting periods from 2019 through 2024, as documented in the annual bedbug reports submitted to HPD.

All six annual reports from 2019-2020 through 2023-2024 indicate no infested units, no eradicated units, and no re-infested units, suggesting successful pest management practices in recent years. Additionally, in 2022, the building addressed previous violations by certifying compliance with the gas leak notification and housing information guide posting requirements, demonstrating responsiveness to regulatory obligations. The most recent documented activity was the 2024 bedbug report filing in December 2024, which continues the building's streak of zero recorded infestations.
