Augrented Insights Report for 385A Putnam Avenue

The three-story, two-unit building at 385A Putnam Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Jacob Brown, has experienced persistent rodent issues over the past two years, with the most recent inspection in March 2025 passing but showing ongoing rat activity challenges. The building, constructed in 1931 and classified as HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS B, has a documented history of maintenance and safety concerns, particularly in 2020 when multiple violations were issued for unsanitary conditions, heat/hot water issues, and problems with paint/plaster in various areas. These issues included rodent infestation, heating system problems, and multiple instances of paint/plaster violations.

The second apartment on the property has several open violations from 2020 regarding a bathroom threshold, mouse infestation, bathroom ceiling, and kitchen refrigerator door gasket, all of which remain unresolved as of 2025. Despite recent compliance inspections showing improved conditions, the building's rodent control history indicates ongoing challenges, with multiple bait applications recorded between September and December 2023 and varying inspection results throughout 2024-2025. The property previously faced bedbug reporting requirements, with records from 2020-2021 showing zero infested units, and a boiler-related complaint in 2019 was closed with no violations found.

Of particular note are the current open violations related to bedbug report filing requirements from 2022-2024, as evidenced by open class A violations from March and April 2024. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with variable results ranging from passed inspections to reports of rat activity and failed inspections for other reasons between 2023 and 2025. While there have been improvements in some areas, the persistence of open violations and recurring pest management challenges suggests ongoing maintenance needs within the property.
