752 Putnam Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The 4-unit, 4-story building at 752 Putnam Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Christopher Bramwell and constructed in 1910, has experienced consistent maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, in early 2025, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions (including mold and pests), ventilation system problems, wall issues, and appliance concerns, with some inspections resulting in violations.

These complaints followed previous heat and hot water problems reported in both 2023 and 2021, though those systems were reportedly restored following tenant confirmation. The building has an open housing maintenance code violation from December 2021 related to mold in apartment 3, along with several previously issued violations concerning the mechanical ventilation system, windows, smoke detectors, and roof leaks, though many of these were later corrected.

Despite these issues, there have been no bedbug infestations reported in any units from 2019 through 2025, and the building has consistently passed rodent inspections between 2018 and 2025, suggesting some basic maintenance standards are being upheld. The most recent bedbug report from June 2025 shows no infestation, and all rodent inspections since 2018 have passed except for one failure in 2012, indicating generally effective pest management protocols. The recurring pattern of ventilation, mold, and various infrastructure issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, with the most recent complaints showing particular concentration on these types of problems.
