249 Madison Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-story, two-unit building at 249 Madison Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Michael Tomlinson, was constructed in 1883 and has undergone previous conversions to become a Class A residence. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, as evidenced by four consecutive open violations from 2022 to 2024, all citing failures to file the required annual bedbug reports under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations.

Notably, however, the building's actual bedbug infestation records show no reported cases during these periods, with all filings indicating zero infested units and successful eradication of any occurrences. The building's rodent control inspections present a mixed picture: while the property has generally passed all initial rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025, a concerning "Rat Activity" finding was recorded in February 2022, though subsequent inspections showed compliance and no further rodent-related issues.

The property's maintenance history shows consistent attention to rodent control, with all inspections since 2022 yielding passing results, including two inspections in 2024 and one in 2025 that passed. The building's overall inspection record suggests regular monitoring and maintenance of pest control measures, despite the ongoing bedbug reporting violation. The most recent inspection data available shows continued passing compliance for both rodent and bedbug-related requirements, though the bedbug reporting violations remain open as of the most recent available data in 2023.
