262 Melrose Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206
The three-unit, three-story New Law Tenement at 262 Melrose Street in Bushwick, owned by Jose Zambrana and built in 1910, has experienced persistent pest management challenges over recent years.
Most notably, the building has unresolved violations from 2021 through 2024 related to the failure to file mandatory annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code, with the most recent violation occurring in April 2024. The property has also faced significant rodent control issues, with rat activity documented in multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025.
While there were some inspections that passed (August 2022, August 2024), the pattern of rat activity is concerning, with at least seven recorded instances of compliance inspections showing rat presence between 2023 and 2025. The frequency and persistence of these pest-related violations suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort.
