535 Macon Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The three-unit, three-story brownstone at 535 Macon Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Suzanne Babb and constructed in 1882, has experienced various maintenance events over the past few years, with the most notable cluster of issues occurring in late 2021. In November 2021, the building received two complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests, which were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but resulted in no violations being recorded. A subsequent inspection on December 1, 2021, revealed multiple violations related to safety signage and building maintenance, including requirements for proper smoke detector notices, carbon monoxide detection requirements, and the need for self-closing building entrance doors.
All these violations were eventually certified as corrected between December 16-29, 2021. The building's more recent history shows improved conditions, with no recorded housing maintenance code violations since 2021. The property has maintained a consistent record of submitting bedbug reports, showing zero infestation cases from 2021 through 2024.
However, there has been some fluctuation in rodent activity reports, with the most recent inspections in 2025 and 2024 resulting in passing grades, while the 2024 inspection noted rat activity. Prior inspections in 2017 and 2022 also passed without issues. The building successfully completed its bedbug reporting requirements for the 2023-2024 period, demonstrating ongoing compliance with HPD regulations. The most recent inspection results suggest improved pest management, though the cyclical nature of the earlier rodent activity noted in 2024 and the 2021 pest complaints should be acknowledged as part of the building's maintenance history.
