1273 Prospect Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11218

The property at 1273 Prospect Avenue in Windsor Terrace is a three-story, three-unit building constructed in 1990 and currently owned by Samuel Robinson. The building has experienced recurring pest control issues over the past several years, most notably with rodent infestations, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints and failed inspections.

The most recent rodent-related incidents include complaints in February 2023 that resulted in violations requiring follow-up inspections, and compliance inspections in May 2023 and March 2023 that failed for unspecified reasons. The building has also faced challenges with bedbug reporting compliance, receiving four consecutive violations between 2021 and 2024 for failure to submit annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code. However, the most recent bedbug report filed for the period ending October 2024 indicated zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units, suggesting possible improvement in this area.

The property's inspection history shows a pattern of rodent-related issues since at least 2015, with most inspections failing for other reasons. Notably, while there have been ongoing problems with both rodent and bedbug management, the most recent regulatory filings indicate some progress, particularly regarding the bedbug situation where no active infestations were reported in the latest inspection period. The building's 311 and housing maintenance violation records, while showing persistent pest management challenges, also demonstrate that violations have generally been addressed through subsequent inspections, though typically with continued non-compliance in the case of rodent-related issues.
