42 Ralph Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The two-family house at 42 Ralph Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Devon Mckenzie, is a 2-story building constructed in 1900, currently containing one unit. The property's violation history reveals several significant issues from 2005, including structural defects in the second-story apartment's walls and ceiling in both the west room and kitchen, as well as problems with unsecured wall cabinets in the kitchen of the same apartment.

While these violations were ultimately closed in 2019, there remains an unresolved Class C violation from 2005 regarding inadequate gas supply to the kitchen range in the second-story apartment. In terms of pest control, the building has maintained a clean record with no reported bedbug infestations in the past two years, as evidenced by filings in 2025 and 2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units.

Additionally, the property has undergone three successful rodent inspections in recent years - in 2019, 2022, and most recently in July 2024 - all of which passed without any noted violations. The most recent inspection results and lack of recent bedbug or rodent issues suggest improved maintenance conditions, though the unresolved gas supply violation from 2005 remains on record as the only current housing maintenance code violation.
