682 Madison Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

682 Madison Street is a two-family, two-story house built in 1899 located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by Jonathan Ahdoot. The property has experienced several noteworthy incidents over the past few years that may impact resident experience.

Most recently, the building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent one in July 2024 passing successfully. However, there have been recurring rodent issues in the past, including a failed inspection in December 2020 and confirmed rat activity in August 2018. The building was subject to a $5,000 fine in July 2020 for violating COVID-19 construction restrictions, though this violation was eventually resolved with a fully rescinded Stop Work Order in September 2020.

The Department of Buildings records show a series of complaints in 2021, including investigations into construction work beyond approved plans (which resulted in no violations upon inspection) and excessive debris (also found to have no violations). The property has maintained an active permit history, with multiple permits issued between 2019 and 2021 for plumbing and electrical work associated with job number 321940600. While the building has passed subsequent rodent inspections after 2020, the initial rat sighting complaint in December 2020 and the subsequent health department investigation suggest that pest control has been an ongoing concern, though recent inspections indicate improved conditions.
