2023 Union Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The 2-story, 4-unit building at 2023 Union Street in Brownsville, owned by Joy Adolphua and constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring issues with pest management compliance over the past several years. Most notably, there have been four consecutive open violations since 2021 (most recently in April 2024) related to the failure to file mandatory annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code.

These ongoing violations suggest either an administrative oversight or possible challenges with pest management documentation. Additionally, there is a concerning pattern of rodent activity recorded between 2017-2018, with the building experiencing rat activity in January and March 2017, though a subsequent rodent inspection in July 2018 showed a passing result, indicating some improvement in pest control measures at that time.

Given the history of both bedbug reporting violations and past rodent issues, the building's management record reveals persistent challenges with maintaining compliance to basic housing maintenance requirements, particularly regarding pest management protocols. The repeated nature of the bedbug report violations over multiple years, continuing into 2024, is particularly notable as it directly relates to tenant health and safety obligations. The relatively recent bedbug reporting violations from 2021-2024, occurring more recently than the past rodent activity, suggest current management focus areas that may affect resident experience, though it's important to note that these violations primarily relate to documentation requirements rather than direct pest presence.
