68 Mac Dougal Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
68 Mac Dougal Street is a 6-unit, 3-story residential tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant that was constructed in 1907 and is currently owned by Moses Grunfeld. The building has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns emerging in May 2025 when multiple complaints were filed regarding various maintenance issues including electrical outlets, light fixtures, door problems, and plumbing issues, though many of these complaints could not be inspected due to lack of access.
The property has documented violations of the Housing Maintenance Code, including a significant Class C violation for cockroach infestation in Apartment 1B from an August 2024 inspection, and similar pest issues were noted in Apartment 3B. The building's common areas have required attention, with violations recorded for broken tiles and plaster in the first-story public hall. Historical records show persistent maintenance challenges, including multiple Department of Buildings complaints in 2025 regarding electrical wiring and gas hookup issues, though access was again a problem for inspectors.
Previous violations from 2020 regarding fire escape obstructions and building maintenance requirements resulted in Environmental Control Board penalties, though these appear to have been resolved. While recent bedbug reports from 2022-2024 show zero infestation cases, there have been ongoing rodent issues, with multiple bait applications recorded between 2024-2025 and some inspections noting rat activity. The building has undergone various repairs and maintenance actions, including painting and plaster work, with some violations being certified as corrected, though several remain open as of the most recent inspections.
