474 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The 6-unit, 4-story tenement building at 474 Halsey Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Mahmoud Ali, has experienced several notable issues in recent years that impact resident comfort and safety. Most concerning is the building's ongoing struggle with rodent issues, as evidenced by a recent rat sighting complaint in November 2023 and multiple instances of rat activity documented in 2024, including inspections in March and January 2024 showing active rodent presence.
While the building's recent rodent inspections in 2025 and late 2024 show passed results, the pattern of violations and complaints suggests this remains a persistent concern. The property has multiple active violations regarding required external low-pressure inspections, with non-compliance documented from 2019 through 2023, including recent violations issued in September 2024 for failure to file the 2023 inspection.
The building's health and safety record also shows recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, though a recent May 2024 filing indicates no infested units during the 2022-2023 reporting period. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspected the building for food safety in 2022, finding violations related to food handling practices, though these were subsequently addressed. On a positive note, the building has obtained recent permits in June 2025 for electrical work and plumbing modifications, suggesting some proactive maintenance by the current ownership.
