31 Garden Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206
31 Garden Street is a 3-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building built in 1931, currently owned by Hector Mangual and located in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The building has experienced recurring issues with pest management, as evidenced by three recent HPD violations in May 2025 related to unsanitary conditions and pests, along with historical documentation of rat sightings and rodent activity between 2022 and 2025, including two compliance inspections in April and May 2025 showing rat activity.
The property has also faced maintenance challenges, with violations issued in May 2025 for cabinet issues, though other complaints such as flooring/stairs and plumbing inspections did not result in violations. The building's history reveals a pattern of regulatory scrutiny and compliance requirements, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations between 2021 and 2023 regarding annual bedbug reporting, though the most recent bedbug reports (2024-2025) show no infested units.
Notable events include a heat/hot water complaint for the entire building in November 2018, where inspectors were unable to access units for verification. While the property has passed several inspections, recent years have shown persistent rodent-related issues, with the most current rodent inspections in 2025 continuing to indicate rat activity. The building's records show regular compliance requirements being addressed, with most violations ultimately being closed, though this often requires the property owner to adhere to correction timelines set by HPD.
