122 Leonard Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 122 Leonard Street in Williamsburg, owned by Augustine Ayala, has experienced recurring pest control challenges since its construction in 2006, with a particularly persistent rodent issue emerging between 2017 and 2023. Most recently, in July 2025, the property remains under scrutiny for rodent-related concerns, with open violations recorded in 2024 regarding the failure to file required bedbug reports, despite previous submissions indicating no infestation or eradication of units during the reporting periods from 2018 to 2023.

The building has undergone multiple rodent investigations, with inspections in both 2023 and 2018 showing rat activity, though the frequency of bait application appears to have decreased over time. The property has generated various complaints and violations, with the most recent 311 service request in May 2023 resulting in health department inspections that found violations requiring follow-up inspections.

While the building has maintained a consistent record of submitting bedbug reports showing zero affected units for several consecutive years, the recent violation regarding report filing raises questions about current compliance levels. The ongoing rodent issues, with documented rat activity as recently as October 2023, suggest that pest management remains an ongoing concern for the property, though there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years.
