798 Macon Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
798 Macon Street is a three-story, six-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1905, currently owned by Josef Emergi, located in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. The building has experienced several maintenance issues throughout recent years, with a significant cluster of problems documented in August 2020, including electrical system concerns (power outages, wiring problems, and lighting issues), multiple water leaks, and interior maintenance needs (flooring, wall and ceiling plaster/paint). These inspections resulted in multiple violations, particularly affecting apartments 1R and 3R, which had specific issues with water leaks and damaged surfaces.
The building's maintenance history shows some persistent challenges, notably a current open violation from June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection. Despite these past issues, more recent records show improvements in certain areas. The building has maintained a clean record in bedbug infestations since 2021, with no reported cases from 2021 through 2025, and has also passed multiple rodent inspections between 2017 and 2025, indicating effective pest control measures.
The property has consistently filed bedbug reports showing zero infested or eradicated units throughout the specified periods. While the building had multiple violations related to water damage and electrical systems in 2020, many of these were addressed and closed by October 2020. The most recent inspections from 2025 (rodent inspection) and 2024 (bedbug report) suggest improved overall building management and maintenance practices, though the open 2023 violation related to low-pressure inspection filing remains on record as of 2025.
