675 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 675 Lafayette Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Michael Blake, has maintained a generally positive record since 2019, with some notable exceptions. The 126-year-old property has consistently demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2024, with all reports showing zero infested units, though a housing maintenance code violation was issued in 2024 regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports, which has since been closed.

The building has experienced some rodent-related challenges, particularly in late 2019 when multiple bait applications were required, and it failed a September 2022 rodent inspection. However, the property has passed all subsequent rodent inspections from 2023 to 2025, indicating successful remediation efforts. In terms of infrastructure and safety, the building has faced a few maintenance issues, including a 2019 violation for inadequate front entrance lighting, which was promptly addressed and certified as corrected within a month.

The property has maintained regular bedbug and rodent inspections, with the most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2023 showing no infestations. The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to violations and maintenance requirements, as evidenced by timely closures of most violations and regular compliance with inspection requirements. The property has been consistently classified as having no infested units in its bedbug reporting history, suggesting effective pest management over the past five years.
