596 St Marks Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
At 596 St. Marks Avenue in Crown Heights, the three-story, four-unit building owned by Dawn Santos has experienced several noteworthy regulatory issues over recent years.
Most significantly, there are multiple open violations related to the annual bedbug reporting requirement as of 2023 and 2024 inspections, though a bedbug report for the 2020-2021 period was filed indicating zero infestation. The building has accumulated several active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations since 2023, specifically regarding failures to file external low-pressure inspections for the years 2018-2022, and previously for the 2017 boiler inspection. A notable incident occurred in December 2019 involving a defective boiler complaint, which resulted in an Oath Violation being served and a corresponding Environmental Control Board (ECB) violation, though this was resolved with no penalties owed.
On a positive note regarding building maintenance, comprehensive rodent inspections conducted from 2020 through 2025 have generally shown compliance, with the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 passing successfully. While there was one instance of rat activity noted in June 2021, the subsequent inspections demonstrate improvement in pest management. The building has maintained a consistent schedule of rodent inspections, with almost all recent checks showing satisfactory results, suggesting regular attention to pest control despite the earlier bedbug reporting violations.
