122 Thatford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The three-story, three-unit tenement building at 122 Thatford Avenue in Brownsville, managed by 122 Thatford Ave LLC and constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring maintenance challenges over the past several years. Most notably, there has been a persistent pest problem, with multiple complaints about both mice and roach infestations, particularly affecting the second-floor apartment (2R), which has current open violations from 2024 requiring the abatement of infestations and repairs to self-closing doors.

The building has also faced periodic water-related issues, including a significant water leak problem documented in April 2024, for which violations were issued, and ongoing sanitation concerns. The property's recent history shows a pattern of unresolved maintenance issues, particularly affecting unit 2R, which has multiple open violations as of 2024 including peeling paint issues, water damage in the bathroom, and pest infestations.

While the building's management has filed regular bedbug reports showing no infested units in recent years (with the most recent report covering 2022-2023 showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units), this may not fully reflect the building's overall pest management challenges. The property has also experienced various other maintenance issues over the years, including problems with toilet plumbing (2021), ceiling plaster (2022), and multiple 311 service requests related to unsanitary conditions. Historical data from 2017-2018 indicates prior rodent activity, though the most recent rodent inspections from 2018 show some remediation efforts were made, with bait applied despite earlier findings of rat activity.
