606 East 16th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226
606 East 16th Street is a three-story, four-unit residential building located in Flatbush, constructed in 1897 and currently owned by Catherine Messina. The property has a documented history of pest control and maintenance compliance issues across multiple years.
Most notably, there are recurring violations related to unmet bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code, with open violations recorded in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021. The building has also experienced issues with rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections showing rat presence between 2015 and 2021, though a compliance inspection in November 2021 did show improved conditions.
Two significant Department of Buildings violations were recorded and later dismissed in 2024, pertaining to the failure to file annual inspection reports for the building's external low pressure system (2018) and boiler (2017). While the most recent rodent inspection (2021) passed, the persistent nature of both pest-related violations and the failure to meet mandatory annual reporting requirements suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges. The building's records indicate periodic monitoring and inspections by various city agencies, with some improvements noted over time, though several violations remain open as of 2025.
