284 Putnam Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The 3-unit residential building at 284 Putnam Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Gregory Costanzo, is a 2-story structure built in 1875 and currently classified as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A building. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance over the past several years, with open violations recorded in 2023 and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations.

These violations seem to follow a pattern, as similar violations were also recorded in 2021 and 2022, though those were subsequently closed. Despite these reporting compliance issues, the building's actual bedbug infestation history appears to be minimal, with official filings from 2020-2021, 2021-2022, and 2022-2023 indicating zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units during those periods.

On a more positive note, the building has maintained consistent rodent inspection compliance, with all rodent inspections from 2020 through July 2025 resulting in "Passed" ratings. This pattern of success in rodent inspections over multiple years suggests effective pest management practices are being maintained in that regard. While the recurring bedbug reporting violations indicate some administrative oversight challenges, they appear to be primarily procedural in nature rather than reflective of active infestation issues, as evidenced by the building's clean infestation record during the reporting periods.
