249 Stockholm Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

249 Stockholm Street is a three-story, six-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Bushwick, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Paul Tsougas. The building has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a series of rodent problems, with three documented incidents of rat activity recorded between January and July 2025, and four rat activity inspections between 2023 and 2024. While some rodent control measures were implemented with bait application in late 2023, the recurring nature of these inspections suggests an ongoing pest management challenge.

The property has experienced multiple heating system complaints, particularly in late 2018 when several tenants reported insufficient heat and hot water. These complaints resulted in two emergency housing maintenance code violations, though inspections were not initially completed due to access issues. Following these incidents, a violation was issued in December 2018 requiring the building to post gas leak safety procedures in a common area.

The building's bedbug history shows relatively minimal infestations, with only two infested units reported in 2019, and no infestations recorded in the subsequent four years (2020-2024). While the building has had its share of maintenance issues, the absence of recent bedbug reports (from 2020 to present) and the closure of major heating complaints suggest some improvements in certain areas. However, the ongoing rodent inspections and activity as of 2025 indicate that pest control remains a significant concern for the property.
