143 Noble Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The three-story, four-unit building at 143 Noble Street in Greenpoint, owned by Prashanth Rayapudi and constructed in 1865, has experienced several notable incidents in recent years. Most concerning are recent rodent-related issues, with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene issuing violations in February 2024, followed by confirmed rat activity during inspections in March and May 2024.

While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with no reported cases between 2019 and 2024, it has faced multiple construction-related complaints in early 2022, including allegations of work without permits, illegal after-hours work, and construction contrary to approved plans. One of these incidents led to an Environmental Control Board violation with a $1,250 penalty for failure to comply with manufacturer's specifications and observations of multiple workers engaged in various construction activities without proper oversight.

The building's maintenance record shows some regulatory attention, with a Housing Maintenance Code violation recorded in March 2023 regarding the timely filing of annual bedbug reports, though the property has since complied, as evidenced by subsequent filings showing zero infestation counts. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with results indicating continued monitoring of vermin activity. Importantly, while the building has faced multiple complaints and violations over the past few years, many of these were either dismissed upon inspection or resolved through appropriate channels, suggesting an ongoing effort to address maintenance and compliance issues.
