97 Hart Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The three-unit residential building at 97 Hart Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Dionne Harris, has been subject to regular inspections and reporting requirements since its construction in 2005. The property has consistently addressed its bedbug reporting obligations, with the most recent 2025 report showing no infestation in any units for the period ending October 31, 2024.

The building has maintained compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements, though there were four consecutive bedbug report violation notices issued between 2021 and 2024, suggesting administrative oversights in filing timing rather than actual infestation issues. More concerning is the building's rodent situation, which has shown a mixed record over the past several years. While recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have passed without incident, there were multiple instances of rat activity noted in 2022, particularly during August, when bait was applied in response to the problem.

The most recent inspection in February 2025 was also conducted as part of a complaint investigation, and records from August 2024 indicate some form of rodent mitigation efforts with bait being placed. The building's rodent management appears to have improved significantly in the last year, with passing inspections and no recent violations. The consistent filing of bedbug reports showing zero infestations reinforces that while the building has faced pest control challenges in the past, these issues have been addressed through regular inspections and compliance measures.
