88 Saratoga Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233
88 Saratoga Avenue is a 3-story, 3-unit tenement building in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Lionel Guigui. The building has experienced recurring issues with rodent infestations over the past several years, with the most recent inspection in June 2025 resulting in a passing grade, but preceding inspections in 2024 showing rat activity and similar findings in 2021-2022. A 2018 Environmental Control Board violation remains active regarding maintenance issues in the cellar level ceiling, with a $500 penalty currently due.
The building has undergone several significant inspections and corrections in 2023, including emergency mold remediation (September), various safety compliance updates, and correction of security issues such as double cylinder locks and door closing mechanisms. The property has maintained a bedbug-free status in recent reporting periods from 2021 to 2024, with no reported infestations or eradications. However, historical complaints from 2019 indicate previous issues with heat and hot water availability affecting the entire building.
The building's recent history shows improved compliance with housing codes, with multiple violations being addressed and closed in 2023, including the posting of required smoke and carbon monoxide detector notices, removal of encumbrances in public areas, and various safety-related corrections. The property has passed all recent rodent inspections as of June 2025, indicating potential improvement in pest control measures. While some maintenance and safety issues persist, particularly regarding the cellar condition mentioned in the 2018 ECB violation, the most recent building data suggests active management and resolution of various housing maintenance code violations, with multiple emergency repairs and inspections being completed or addressed.
