772 Macon Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 772 Macon Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Willie Watkins and constructed in 1910 as a New Law Tenement, has documented several concerning maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, the building has experienced ongoing rodent problems, with rat activity reported consistently from 2022 through 2025 during multiple inspections, including three separate incidents in 2023 alone, though there was one "Passed" result in 2017.

The property has had recurring administrative compliance issues regarding bedbug reporting, with violations noted in both 2022 and 2023 for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports, though subsequent filings from 2023-2025 show no reported infestations or eradications. Additionally, there are two active violations from May 2019, with no specified description or disposition comments, and a recent debris-related complaint from April 2024 was found to warrant no violation at the time of inspection.

The building's recent bedbug reporting history indicates improved compliance, with the most recent July 2025 report showing no infestation history for the 2023-2024 period. However, the persistent rat activity documented through multiple inspections suggests an ongoing pest control challenge. It's worth noting that while there have been some housing maintenance code violations in recent years, particularly concerning bedbug report compliance, the most recent filings indicate the owner has begun to rectify these administrative issues.
