Augrented Insights Report for 989 Bedford Avenue

The four-story, seven-unit building at 989 Bedford Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Sol Hirsch and constructed in 1931, has faced ongoing pest-related challenges, particularly with rodents. The property has generated consistent rodent-related complaints from 2023 to 2025, with multiple inspections revealing rat activity as recently as July 2025, and several instances of bait application throughout 2024.

Recent complaints include a ceiling paint/plaster issue reported in May 2025, which was subsequently addressed, and prior complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and pests in 2024 that required inspections from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building's history reveals significant occupancy-related violations from 2022, when it was found to have been unlawfully converted to contain additional dwelling units, including three furnished rooms and an SRO unit in Apartment 1A, along with related safety concerns about fire alarms and means of egress, though these violations were marked as resolved.

There are currently three active violations related to unfiled low-pressure inspection reports from 2023, covering the years 2017, 2018, and 2019. While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, consistently showing zero infested units in recent filings from 2023 and 2024, the persistent rodent issues and recent ceiling maintenance concerns suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance.
