8710 3rd Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11209

This three-story, five-unit New Law tenement building at 8710 3rd Avenue in Fort Hamilton, owned by Anastasia Mancuso and constructed in 1926, has experienced recurring issues with mold and bedbugs over recent years. Most notably, there have been two documented mold incidents in the past five years - in April 2020 (which was investigated with no violations found) and more recently in November 2024, where the inspection could not be completed and HPD recommended filing a new complaint if the issue persisted.

The building's bedbug history shows one confirmed case in the most recent reporting period (2022-2023) affecting one unit, with previous years (2021, 2020, 2019) showing no infestations, though it follows a pattern of infestation and eradication that began in 2023. The property has also faced some structural and safety concerns, particularly in late 2018, when issues regarding an illegally installed business sign resulted in violations and a $500 penalty, though this matter was subsequently resolved.

The building's maintenance history reveals these significant issues, particularly the recurring problems with mold, which represent the most pressing concerns from a resident comfort and safety perspective. The bedbug situation, while not recent in terms of ongoing infestation, indicates a need for continued attention to pest management protocols.
