126 Bay 25th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

126 Bay 25th Street is a four-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Gasper Errante. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, most notably concentrated in apartment 3 during 2020, where multiple violations were documented including problems with mold (6 sq. ft.

at the west window frame and ceiling), rodent and insect infestations (including mice and roaches), water leaks in the bathroom ceiling, and deficiencies in safety equipment such as missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. While many of these violations were closed by September 2020, the building has continued to face regulatory scrutiny, with the most recent inspections in 2022 and 2024 documenting failures to file required annual bedbug reports, though subsequent filings indicate no current infestations. The building's external maintenance requirements have also been noted, with a 2020 violation concerning inadequate support brackets for air conditioning units on the 3rd and 4th stories at the front of the building.

However, the property has shown recent improvement in pest management, with all bedbug reports since 2019 indicating zero infested or re-infested units, and the most recent reports from 2024 and 2025 continue this pattern of no reported infestations. A Department of Buildings permit was issued in 2019 for work described as "EW," though specific details of this work are not provided in the available data. It's worth noting that while the building has a history of maintenance issues, especially in 2020, the property appears to have stabilized in recent years regarding both bedbug management and other violations, with most recent citations being administrative in nature rather than directly impacting resident safety or comfort.
