192 Madison Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-story, two-family house at 192 Madison Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Eleanor Dixon and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant events over the past few years that warrant attention. Most recently, in 2024, there were issues with scaffolding safety, resulting in a partial stop work order and a $2,500 violation penalty due to improperly permitted scaffolding on the building's exterior.

The building has also experienced some concerning structural issues, with a complaint about debris potentially falling from the building filed in April 2024, though this was resolved without any violations being found during the subsequent inspection in June. Another notable incident occurred in 2019, when there was a complaint regarding illegal hotel rooms within the property, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the claims. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections since 2020, with the majority of inspections passing successfully, indicating effective pest control.

While there was one instance of rat activity noted in November 2024, subsequent inspections in December 2024 and May 2025 returned passing results. A 2024 complaint regarding building debris was filed and investigated, though no violations were found. The building has maintained compliance with rodent control regulations, with only two instances of rat activity recorded in five years, suggesting that while there have been occasional pest issues, they are being addressed promptly.
