978 Myrtle Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206
This 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 978 Myrtle Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Moses Rabinovits, was constructed in 2005 and has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years. The property has had multiple complaints and violations related to unsanitary conditions, particularly during 2024-2025, with two recent pest-related complaints in September 2024 that prompted inspections by both HPD and DOHMH.
Apartment 2, which has generated the most recent violations, was cited in April 2024 for multiple issues including the need for window guard repairs, door hinge repairs, various plaster and paint work, radiator maintenance, and notably for a cockroach infestation - all of which remain open as of 2024. The building has experienced several significant infrastructure issues including a heavy water flow leak in May 2023, radiator problems in December 2023, and a heat/hot water issue affecting the entire building in January 2022. The property's pest management history shows a somewhat contradictory pattern - while there have been regular reports of rodent activity prompting inspections (with the most recent passing inspection in February 2025), the annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 show zero infested units or related incidents.
The building's maintenance record indicates challenges with inspection access for various complaints, including heat/hot water issues in 2022, pest complaints in 2020 and 2024, and the recent unsanitary conditions complaint in September 2024. Despite the recurring nature of some issues, particularly pests and maintenance concerns in Apartment 2, the building has generally passed regular rodent inspections conducted between 2023-2025, though there have been instances of rat activity noted in October 2024 and February 2023. The property has been in compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, consistently showing zero infested units across multiple filing periods.
