434 Mac Donough Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233
The three-unit, two-story building at 434 Mac Donough Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Lionel Patterson and constructed in 1901, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing being a series of heat and hot water problems in December 2023 that resulted in multiple emergency complaints affecting the entire building and specifically Apartment 3 on the second floor. These heating and hot water violations remain open as of the latest inspection in April 2024.
The building has also been subject to rodent-related concerns, with the most recent June 2025 inspection resulting in a failed status, though previous rodent inspections between 2020 and 2024 had passed. The property has a documented history of health and maintenance issues, including multiple rodent complaints between 2021 and 2022, and a pigeon waste incident in May 2022, though this was inspected and found to have no violations.
While there were concerns about illegal animals and conditions attracting rodents in 2022, these inspections were not able to access the property. In terms of administrative violations, there is an open Class C violation from December 2023 regarding inadequate heat and hot water in Apartment 3, and a Class B violation regarding insufficient lighting in the vestibule and public hall. The building's bedbug reporting for 2024 shows no active infestation, with zero units reported as infested, eradicated, or re-infested during the 2023-2024 reporting period, and records from previous years show compliance with bedbug reporting requirements.
