672 Putnam Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 672 Putnam Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Penelope George, has a documented history spanning over a decade. Built in 1910 and classified as a "Heretofore Converted Class A" property, the building has consistently passed regular rodent inspections, with the most recent inspection in June 2025 showing no issues.

However, there are persistent housing maintenance code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements that have remained open since 2021, despite annual inspections being conducted each year (2021 through 2024) that resulted in violations for failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug report. A rat sighting complaint was logged and investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in May 2024, though no violations were found during that inspection and the property passed.

The building's inspection record shows a strong pattern of compliance with rodent control requirements, having passed all eight rodent inspections conducted between 2011 and 2025. These inspections, which occur on a regular basis, indicate that while the bedbug reporting violations are concerning, the property has maintained a relatively stable environment with respect to rodent presence. The most recent building inspection results suggest that while some regulatory requirements are not being met, the property's overall condition appears stable, with recent rodent inspections continuing to show compliance with city health standards.
