1245 Blake Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208
1245 Blake Avenue is a two-story, four-unit residential building located in East New York, constructed in 1925 and classified as a New Law Tenement. The property, currently owned by Leonard John, has a concerning pattern of unresolved housing maintenance code violations, particularly regarding bedbug reporting requirements.
The building has received four consecutive violations from 2021 through 2024, all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules, with these violations remaining open as of the latest available data. The building's pest management history includes a significant rodent-related incident in November 2021, when the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene attempted to investigate a reported rat sighting but was unable to access the property.
This complaint remains notable as the most recent direct pest-related service request. The property's only documented rodent inspection prior to the 2021 complaint, conducted in April 2012, had passed. While the building's age and classification suggest it must comply with specific regulatory requirements, the pattern of open violations regarding bedbug reporting, spanning multiple years and continuing into 2024, indicates potential ongoing management challenges in maintaining compliance with housing codes and addressing pest-related issues.
