13 Marconi Place, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The three-story residential building at 13 Marconi Place in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Afusa Usman, is a 3-unit old law tenement constructed in 1901. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly related to heat and hot water systems.

In 2023 alone, there were multiple heat/hot water complaints (February 15 and 27), resulting in violations related to inadequate heat supply and hot water availability. March 2023 inspections revealed several safety violations in apartment 1st floor, including missing smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and issues with self-closing doors, along with the accumulation of refuse in the cellar. The building has passed recent rodent inspections, most notably a July 2023 inspection showed no violations, though a June 2023 rat sighting was reported and investigated with no violations found.

More recently, in early 2025, the property has faced multiple complaints regarding work without permits in an occupied multiple dwelling, with inspections conducted in February, March, and April 2025, though in some cases inspectors were unable to gain access. Notably, the building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent records of zero infested dwelling units between 2021 and 2024, suggesting effective pest management practices. While the property has had its share of maintenance and safety issues, most violations recorded in recent years have been addressed and closed, with particular attention to maintaining compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestations consistently in recent filings.
