1451 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
1451 Bedford Avenue is a four-story, eight-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1929, currently owned by Kim Tatum and located in Crown Heights. The property has experienced recurring pest issues, with three separate pest-related complaints between March 2025 and June 2025. The building underwent multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025, consistently passing rodent inspections, though bait was required in mid-2023, suggesting ongoing management of rodent issues.
The property has documented four Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021-2024 regarding failure to file annual bedbug reports, though recent filings (2023-2025) show no infested units reported. The building has experienced various maintenance issues affecting resident comfort and safety, including heat and hot water problems (resolved within two days in December 2024), plumbing concerns, and unsanitary conditions involving mold (June 2025). While some complaints were addressed during inspections and violations issued, others were closed due to lack of access for inspectors.
The Department of Buildings has active violations from June 2023 for failure to file external low pressure inspections for 2019, 2020, and 2021, highlighting potential ongoing maintenance oversight. These inspections are critical for ensuring safety systems are properly maintained, and the lack of compliance since at least 2019 is notable. The property has demonstrated some responsiveness to pest management, with regular inspections and treatments, though the frequency of pest-related complaints suggests this remains an ongoing maintenance challenge.
