683 Putnam Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The three-story, four-unit apartment building at 683 Putnam Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Danielle Mccullough, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly during 2021. The most pressing concerns involve recurring water-related problems, with multiple complaints about leaks and damp spots documented between January and September 2021.

Inspections in 2021 resulted in violations being issued, particularly affecting the building's second-floor apartment, which faced both water leak issues and problems with broken plastered surfaces and paint. Additionally, there was an emergency complaint about unsanitary mold conditions in February 2021, and the building has multiple open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024. More recent inspections show improved conditions regarding pests, with rodent inspections in July 2024, November 2022, and June 2018 all resulting in passing grades.

A potentially concerning event in 2020 involved a building stability complaint, which was referred to the Department of Transportation but appears to have been resolved. While some historical issues remain unresolved (e.g., the open bedbug report violations), there has been a noticeable reduction in water-related complaints in recent years, with no similar issues reported since 2021. The building's infrastructure appears to be generally stable as of the most recent inspections, though the persistent nature of some past violations suggests attention to maintenance protocols may be necessary.
