1665 Dekalb Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
1665 Dekalb Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit residential tenement building located in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Salvatore Ruffo. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance since 2020, with all annual reports showing zero infested units, including the most recent filings for the 2023-2024 reporting period submitted in December 2024.
While the building had one Housing Maintenance Code violation in March 2023 related to the timely filing of the annual bedbug report, this violation has been marked as closed. The rodent inspection history presents a mixed picture of pest management in the building.
The most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 resulted in passing grades, though there was a rat activity report in March 2024 following an initial inspection. Previous years show sporadic rodent issues, with rat activity noted in both September 2022 and August 2022, while earlier inspections in 2020, 2014, and 2013 all passed without incident. The building's annual bedbug reporting history, which shows consistent compliance with zero infestations, contrasts with the rodent inspection results, suggesting different levels of success in managing these two distinct pest challenges.
