206 Irving Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237

This three-story, four-unit Old Law Tenement building located at 206 Irving Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Joseph Fragala, has experienced recurring pest issues and building maintenance concerns in recent years. Most notably, from April to May 2024, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests, along with issues concerning flooring, though the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect these conditions.

A similar pattern occurred in September 2023, with complaints about pest conditions and a window issue that was inspected but resulted in no violations. The building's rodent inspection history reveals an ongoing challenge, with rat activity noted in May and June 2025, following several inspections in 2024 that showed mixed results, including both passed inspections and reports of rat activity.

Despite these issues, records show consistent bedbug reporting from 2019 through 2025, with all reports indicating zero infested units, suggesting effective management of this particular pest problem. The most recent building permit activity includes an in-process alteration permit filed in January 2024, following the issuance of a previously filed permit in February 2022, though the specific nature of these permits is not detailed in the available data.
