579 Leonard Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

The three-story, three-unit building at 579 Leonard Street in Greenpoint, owned by Brigitte Guidice, is a 126-year-old tenement property with a relatively uneventful recent history concerning pest control and maintenance compliance. The building has shown consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024, with all six consecutive filing periods reporting zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units.

While the property received three Class A violations between 2021 and 2023 for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code, these violations all appear to have been addressed, as evidenced by the subsequent correct filings showing no infestations. The only other noted inspection on record was a successful rodent inspection conducted in May 2013, more than a decade ago.

Given the age of the building and the historic challenges often faced by older tenements, the recent record of stable bedbug reporting and successful compliance with health department requirements is noteworthy. The building's recent history, particularly from 2021 onward, suggests improved adherence to maintenance requirements, though the initial violations for bedbug reporting should be noted as they indicate some administrative oversight in this particular area prior to 2024.
