742 Chauncey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207
742 Chauncey Street in Bushwick is a two-story, two-family residential building constructed in 1905 and currently owned by 742 Chauncey LLC. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues, with the most recent inspections in 2025 and early 2024 showing rat activity, following a pattern of inspections revealing violations or requiring follow-up concerning rodent sightings.
The building's safety systems have also raised concerns, with an unresolved smoke detector inspection in 2023 where HPD was unable to gain access for evaluation. Between 2021 and 2023, there were two complaints regarding illegal hotel rooms in the building, though inspectors were unable to gain access on both occasions during their second final attempts.
Notably, the building has consistently demonstrated proper handling of bedbug issues, as evidenced by three consecutive annual reports (2022-2024) showing zero documented infestations or related activities. The property's maintenance record includes various inspection outcomes, with many passing rodent inspections between 2019 and 2022, suggesting periods of effective pest control. The recurring rodent violations, particularly in recent inspections, and the smoke detector access issue in 2023 are significant points of concern, while the absence of bedbug problems over multiple years indicates effective management of that particular pest.
