850 Mcdonald Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11218

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 850 McDonald Avenue in Borough Park, owned by Rose Figueroa, was constructed in 1925 and has undergone several notable events over the past six years. Most concerning are the series of housing maintenance code violations in and around 2019, particularly affecting the third-floor apartment, which included issues with electrical service, carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, door functionality, and pest infestation (specifically roaches).

While many of these violations were eventually closed, they represent significant past maintenance concerns. More recently, the building has had regular bedbug reporting violations between 2021 and 2024, with repeated notices regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these reports from 2024-2025 indicate no current infestation issues, with records showing zero infested units and eradicated units. The most recent documented violation as of 2024 was an open bedbug report filing requirement, though previous filings have shown no infestation history.

The building's history shows some pattern of maintenance and compliance challenges, particularly in 2019, when several code violations were documented simultaneously. However, the most recent bedbug filings from 2021 through 2024 suggest improved reporting compliance, even though the 2024 violation was noted as closed. The current state of the building as of mid-2025 shows no active violations on record, but the pattern of past maintenance issues warrants attention to ensure proper upkeep standards are maintained.
