1071 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The four-story, six-unit residential building at 1071 Bedford Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Deborah Robinson, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. The property, built in 1931 and classified as an Old Law Tenement, has demonstrated persistent maintenance challenges, particularly regarding rodent control, with rat activity documented in multiple inspections throughout 2023-2025.
The building has also faced recurring administrative issues, including violations for failure to file required bedbug reports, though recent filings show no reported infestation cases from 2020-2023. Significant building system concerns emerged in 2018, including inadequate hot water supply in apartment 2R and access issues to the heating system, though these violations were subsequently resolved.
More recent structural and compliance issues include a 2023 violation related to an external low-pressure inspection that appears to remain unresolved as of June 2023, and a 2021 violation regarding exterior maintenance that incurred a $620 penalty. The building has undergone several rodent inspections between 2023-2025, with the most recent inspections in March 2025 confirming rat activity, while earlier inspections in 2023-2024 also indicated similar problems. While the property has maintained its bedbug prevention compliance in recent years, with no reported infestations in the past several reporting periods, the ongoing rodent issues and structural violations suggest continued challenges with building maintenance and compliance.
