23 Devoe Street, Brooklyn, NY 11211

The three-story, three-unit brownstone at 23 Devoe Street in Williamsburg, owned by Joseph Forgione, has been subject to recurring regulatory attention regarding bedbug reporting compliance over a four-year period from 2021 to 2024. Most recently, in April 2024, an open Class A Housing Maintenance Code violation was recorded concerning the failure to file the annual bedbug report as required by HPD regulations; similar violations were recorded in March 2023, February 2022 (which was closed), and April 2021 (also closed).

The property did submit a bedbug report for the period from November 2020 to October 2021, declaring no infested units, no units that were eradicated, and no re-infested units, suggesting proactive management of any potential issues. The building, constructed in 1901 and classified as an Old Law Tenement, has maintained its three-story structure throughout its history.

While the ongoing bedbug report compliance issues are noteworthy, it's important to note that the actual infestation status reported in 2022 was entirely clear. The pattern of violations suggests a recurring administrative oversight regarding report submissions rather than indicating active pest management concerns, especially given the absence of any reported infestation cases. The most recent open violation as of April 2024 remains unresolved as of the latest available data.
