709 Decatur Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

709 Decatur Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, that was constructed in 1899 and is classified as an Old Law Tenement. The building, currently owned by Deborah Hall, has experienced recurring housing maintenance violations over the past four years related to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024, and all four violations from 2021 through 2024 remaining open in the system.

These violations specifically pertain to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by the Housing Maintenance Code, with the necessary documentation detailed on the HPD website. In terms of pest control, the building underwent six consecutive rodent inspections between 2018 and 2019, all of which passed successfully, indicating no rodent-related issues during that period.

The consistent pattern of bedbug reporting violations over multiple years suggests ongoing non-compliance with HPD requirements, though the absence of recorded bedbug infestations in the inspection data does provide some reassurance about the current pest status. The building's age and classification as an Old Law Tenement are important contextual factors, though they do not directly impact resident experience or safety.
