292 Essex Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208
292 Essex Street is a three-story, six-unit New Law tenement building located in East New York and owned by Jorge Larraga. The 1914 structure has experienced recurring rodent issues, with the most recent incidents occurring in December 2023, where both complaints were documented as rat sightings, one requiring follow-up inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
The building has undergone several rodent inspections over the years, with the most recent being in March 2024, which passed, following an initial inspection in January 2024 that documented rat activity. Prior to these occurrences, the building faced persistent challenges with bedbug reporting compliance, receiving violations in 2022, 2023, and 2024 for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required by Housing Maintenance Code, though subsequent filings between 2021-2024 consistently reported zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units.
The building's inspection history shows a mixture of compliance and failed inspections, particularly regarding pest control measures. Notably, there were multiple failed inspections between 2009-2010, though specific reasons were marked as "Other Reasons" in the records. While the property has demonstrated some improvement in recent years, as evidenced by the March 2024 passing rodent inspection and consistent bedbug report filings showing no current infestations, the recurring nature of both rodent and bedbug-related violations suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and pest management systems.
