142 Avenue U, Brooklyn, NY 11223
The 4-unit, 3-story residential building at 142 Avenue U in Gravesend, owned by Giovanni Temperino, has documented several health and maintenance issues over recent years.
Most concerning is a rodent problem, with the latest incidents including a rat sighting in May 2025 that resulted in health department violations requiring follow-up inspections, and a subsequent rodent inspection in July 2025 where the building passed following previous rat activity noted in May 2025. The property has also had food safety incidents, including a significant food poisoning case in July 2021 involving three or more cases, though the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene labeled it as isolated after inspection.
The building has a record of regulatory compliance issues regarding bedbug reporting, with violations noted in 2021, 2022, and 2023, though recent bedbug reports for the filing periods of 2022-2023, 2023-2024, and 2024-2025 show zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, indicating successful management of this particular issue.
