402 Tompkins Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 6-unit, 4-story tenement building at 402 Tompkins Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Narendra Patel, has experienced several recurring maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been multiple reports of pest infestations, including significant rodent activity, with inspections showing rat presence as recently as September 2024 and February 2025. The building has also faced various infrastructure challenges, including a power outage in April 2024, and multiple issues with the door and intercom systems throughout 2023 and 2024.
Three open violations from late 2023 remain concerning, related to fire-retarding materials, floor tiles on the second story, and the bell/buzzer intercom system on the first story, all of which involve required repairs under the Administrative Code. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of delayed inspections and unresolved issues, particularly with the intercom system, ventilation, and door problems. There were two boiler-related complaints in 2021, though these were ultimately determined to have no violations at the time of inspection.
More recently, while the 2025 bedbug report shows no current infestations and the building passed a February 2025 inspection, the rodent activity noted in 2024 and earlier years suggests ongoing pest management challenges. The building has also had various maintenance code violations related to hall maintenance, lighting, and door security, though many of these were resolved by late 2023. The most recent violation from April 2023 regarding failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection remains active as of October 2023.
