489 Van Buren Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221
489 Van Buren Street is a 12-unit, 3-story residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 2006 and currently owned by Dorys Fabara.
The building has experienced consistent rodent monitoring requirements, with all inspections in 2025, 2024, and 2023 showing "Passed" results, except for a January 2024 inspection which noted "Rat Activity." The property has maintained an exemplary record regarding bedbug management, with annual reports filed from 2021 to 2025 showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units.
Two significant incidents of concern include a heat and hot water emergency in December 2020, which was resolved within four days according to both HPD and 311 records, and a rodent sighting in December 2023, which was investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and resulted in no violations being found. The building's most recent violation, issued in April 2024, pertained to the requirement of filing annual bedbug reports, though this appears to be more administrative in nature given the subsequent filings indicating no bedbug presence.
