468 Putnam Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The three-unit, three-story building at 468 Putnam Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Phyllis Bernard, has experienced a series of concerning access issues in recent months, particularly between April and May 2025, with multiple complaints regarding door-related problems. During this period, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) attempted inspections four times but was unable to gain access, though one of these complaints was later categorized as an emergency.
The building also has outstanding Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with these violations remaining open as of the most recent inspection in April 2024. While the property has passed rodent inspections in 2024, 2022, and 2019, there were indications of rodent activity requiring bait application in 2010.
More recently, in May 2025, there was an active complaint regarding illegal conversion, though inspectors were unable to access the property for verification. The building, constructed in 1915, has maintained its designation as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A property, though the persistent inability to complete HPD inspections raises concerns about access-related issues. The property has maintained three residential units throughout its history, and while some maintenance issues have been documented, including historical rodent activity, these appear to have been addressed through inspections and treatments.
