202 Eldert Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

202 Eldert Street is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in Bushwick and owned by Odelia Boykin. Built in 1899, this "Heretofore Converted Class A" building has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, particularly regarding rodent problems. Most significantly, in March 2025, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) documented rat sightings on the property, leading to inspections and the application of rodent bait in July 2025.

The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections throughout 2022-2025, with rat activity recorded in both March and April 2025. The property has also faced challenges with bedbug reporting compliance; while recent filings from 2024 indicate no infested units, the building received violation notices in both 2022 and 2023 for failure to file the required annual bedbug report, though these violations were subsequently closed. The building's 311 service history shows a dog-related unsanitary condition complaint in 2020, though inspectors were unable to access the property for verification.

Despite these issues, it's worth noting that recent rodent inspections in 2024 had passed before the 2025 rodent activity was recorded. The property's historical inspection record shows consistency in rodent-related interventions, with bait application becoming necessary in 2025, following previous inspections that had passed. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, particularly with pests, there are no current active violations on record as of July 2025.
