332 Hart Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

332 Hart Street is a four-story, eight-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by Steve Lichtman. The building has experienced persistent rodent control challenges, with multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints about rodent activity recorded between 2021 and 2025, including recent rat activity identified in July 2025 inspections. The property has shown compliance with some rat control measures, as indicated by "Passed" results in several recent inspections.

Additionally, there is a concerning pattern of bedbug report violations, with the most recent summary from April 2024 showing no infested or eradicated units, though violations were recorded in 2024 and earlier years for failing to file required annual reports. The building has a history of safety-related violations, particularly documented in 2018, including issues with smoke detector requirements, fire escape access, and various notification requirements in the first-story public hall. Previous violations from 2015-2019 involved safety systems in Apartment 1L, including missing smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector issues, which were eventually certified as corrected.

There was also a significant rodent-related violation in 2002 for the cellar area. The most recent bedbug reporting period (2024) shows proper compliance with zero infested units, though earlier filings from 2021-2023 indicated similar results. A Department of Buildings complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms was recorded in July 2023 but was closed due to inspector access issues.
