1008 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-unit, two-story building at 1008 Halsey Street in Bushwick, owned by Anthony Croce, has experienced persistent pest management challenges over the past several years, with particular emphasis on rodent issues. The property currently has open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements for the years 2021-2024, and there were multiple rodent activity reports throughout 2022-2025.

The most recent rodent inspections in July 2025 showed ongoing activity requiring bait application. The building's maintenance history shows several significant issues that have required attention, particularly in early 2019 when multiple violations were documented in Apartment 2, including problems with wall conditions (both paint/plaster and sanitation concerns), door issues, and a water leak. While some of these violations were marked as "closed," there are still open violations from 2019 related to door repair and wall painting in Apartment 2.

The property has also had a history of pest-related complaints, with the most recent unsanitary conditions complaint regarding pests filed in September 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. The building's infrastructure concerns were highlighted in 2019 with multiple complaints regarding heat/hot water and various maintenance issues, though inspections during that period did not result in violations being issued for these specific complaints. The building's history indicates ongoing challenges with both rodent and pest management, with recent inspections showing continued reliance on bait application as of mid-2025, and persistent issues with meeting bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024.
