568 Quincy Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The three-story, three-unit building at 568 Quincy Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Robert Silverblatt, was constructed in 2004 and has experienced several maintenance issues over the years. The most significant cluster of problems occurred in September 2021, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding heat and hot water issues throughout the building, cooking gas concerns, and pest infestations, particularly affecting the third-floor apartment (which received official violations to address a mouse infestation).

Additional notable incidents include a heavy water leak complaint from February 2020, and several violations in July 2021 concerning safety issues in the first-floor apartment, such as missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, scalding hot water, and an unauthorized locking mechanism on a rear yard door. Recent inspections indicate ongoing rodent management challenges, with bait application noted in late 2024 and earlier reports of rat activity. However, the most recent rodent inspection in July 2025 resulted in a passing grade.

The building's bedbug reports from 2023-2024 show no infestations, suggesting successful pest management in this regard. The property has undergone regular inspections and complied with most enforcement actions, with the most recent housing maintenance violations being addressed and closed. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues, particularly in 2021, more recent records show improved management of both pest control and safety requirements, though some concerns about rodent activity and building systems persist.
