231A Madison Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

231A Madison Street is a three-story, four-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, built in 1881 and currently owned by Natalie Bekker. The building has undergone several significant inspections and maintenance requirements in recent years, particularly concerning pest control and rodent management.

Most notably, there has been a consistent pattern of bedbug reporting violations from 2021 through 2024, with the most recent violation in April 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD. However, bug infestation reports from February 2023, March 2022, and February 2022 showed zero infested units, indicating successful eradication efforts despite the reporting violations. The building has also experienced one instance of rat activity in February 2022, though subsequent rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 have consistently passed, suggesting improved pest management.

The property had a Department of Buildings complaint in April 2019 regarding excessive debris, but this was closed with no violation warranted upon inspection in June 2019. Multiple permits were issued between September 2018 and January 2019 for exterior and plumbing work under job number 340630810, though the specific nature of these improvements is not detailed in the records. While the building's recent history shows effective management of both bedbug and rodent situations, the recurring bedbug reporting violations and one instance of rat activity in 2022 are notable entries in the building's record, though the consistent pattern of passing rodent inspections suggests ongoing attention to pest control.
