487 St Marks Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238
487 St Marks Avenue is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building located in Crown Heights, built in 1930 and currently owned by Donald Minerva.
The property has experienced persistent maintenance challenges over the past several years, with the most recent significant issue being a building-wide heat and hot water complaint in January 2024, which could not be inspected due to access issues. The building has documented a recurring rodent problem, with three rat sighting complaints filed in 2021-2022 and ongoing rat activity observed during inspections in 2025, despite multiple bait applications between February 2024 and July 2025.
The property has shown some positive developments in pest control, as evidenced by the complete eradication of one bedbug infestation in 2021-2022, and subsequent years (2022-2024) reporting no further bedbug activity. While the building has passed some inspections, the pattern of rodent activity and heating system complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges that may impact resident comfort.
