626 Mac Donough Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The two-family house at 626 Mac Donough Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Shimon Sabah, is a 2-story brownstone built in 1899. The property has experienced several notable incidents over the past five years, with a cluster of rodent-related complaints in 2020, including two rat sightings in July that year which prompted investigations by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though one inspection was reportedly unable to access the site.

Despite these initial rodent issues, more recent inspections have shown significant improvement, with the building passing three consecutive rodent inspections in October 2022, June 2024, and most recently June 2025, indicating effective pest management has been implemented. The building has also been subject to two complaints regarding being vacant, open, and unguarded in 2020 and 2021, both of which were investigated but resulted in no violations being warranted at the time of inspection.

While the property exhibited some concerning conditions in 2020, the passing rodent inspection records from 2022 through 2025 suggest improved maintenance standards in recent years. The building's status as a 2-family house is consistent with its classification, though the recent inspection results indicate substantial improvements in both security and pest management since the 2020 incidents.
