915 Mother Gaston Blvd, Brooklyn, NY 11212

The two-story, five-unit tenement at 915 Mother Gaston Blvd, owned by Joseph Modeste, has experienced recurring pest-related issues over recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring between 2021 and 2022. Three separate complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests were filed in July 2022, all of which resulted in Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) violations. Specifically, Apartment 2R was noted for having both roach and mice infestations that summer, along with a violation regarding a defective self-closing door.

Earlier, in June 2021, another pest-related complaint was filed and subsequently closed without violations. The building's recent inspection history shows multiple violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent violation issued in April 2024. However, the latest bedbug filing for the period of November 2022 to October 2023 indicates no infestation issues during that period, suggesting successful compliance with eradication efforts.

Earlier violations from 2021 included issues with illegally fastened front yard gate locks, which were noted as open violations regarding the north and west fence gates. While the building's 311 complaint history shows consistent reporting of pest-related issues and violations, it's worth noting that recent bedbug reports in 2024 and 2021 indicate zero infested units during those reporting periods. The property, built in 1930, is classified as a New Law Tenement and has undergone typical regulatory scrutiny for its age and building class, particularly regarding pest management and safety compliance.
