228 Quincy Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 4-story, 6-unit residential building at 228 Quincy Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Anthony Thomas, was constructed in 2001 and has experienced several significant maintenance and health safety issues in recent years. Between 2022 and 2025, the building faced recurring rodent problems, with multiple DOHMH complaints in March 2022 resulting in violations and a pattern of rat activity evidenced by multiple rodent inspections and bait applications throughout 2023-2025, though recent inspections have passed. The property experienced substantial maintenance issues in May 2022, including mold, water leaks, and garbage storage concerns, along with numerous housing maintenance code violations that remain open, particularly related to building safety systems including fire retardant materials, mold conditions, and various safety notices.
The building’s recent history includes three inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing no violations, though several open violations from 2022 remain unresolved. The building underwent significant scrutiny during 2020, with multiple complaints related to construction activities, including an Environmental Control Board violation for construction contrary to COVID-19 orders that carried a $5,000 penalty. There were also several safety violation notices regarding smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detector notices, and building entrance maintenance that, while recorded, show periods of resolution.
Despite these issues, recent bedbug reports from 2023-2024 indicate no infestations or re-infestations during the past two reporting periods. The property has maintained an active schedule of rodent control measures, with most recent inspections passing, suggesting some progress in pest management, though the historical frequency of rodent issues points to an ongoing challenge in this area. The building’s permit history shows several construction-related permits issued between 2019 and 2020, correlating with the period of heightened complaints and violations.
