6802 Bay Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The three-story, five-unit residential building at 6802 Bay Parkway in Bensonhurst, owned by Mario Altilio and constructed in 1931, has experienced several concerning health and maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, as of August 2024, there are current violations related to unsanitary pigeon conditions on the property, with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene having documented violations and scheduling follow-up inspections.

The building has also faced challenges with rodent control, as evidenced by failed inspections in September and October 2024, following a pattern of non-compliance with rodent control requirements in earlier years. The property has a concerning history of hygiene-related violations, including a 2024 open Housing Maintenance Code violation regarding bedbug report filing, and a previous pattern of similar violations from 2021 to 2023.

The building's maintenance record shows a mix of reported health incidents, including an indoor air quality complaint in 2020 and a food poisoning incident in 2019, though these were determined to be isolated occurrences. While the bedbug report filings for 2021-2022 and 2019-2020 indicated no infested or re-infested units, the ongoing health and pest control issues suggest a challenging maintenance environment. The building's age and classification as a "New Law Tenement" place it in a specific category under New York City housing regulations, which requires particular attention to maintenance and reporting requirements, though compliance with these requirements has been inconsistent as evidenced by the violation history.
