408 Tompkins Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The four-story, four-unit residential building at 408 Tompkins Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Kenyata Allain, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. The property suffered fire damage affecting all three apartments on its upper floors (1R, 2, and 3) in January 2024, which resulted in multiple Class C violations that have since been closed. The building has also faced recurring pest management challenges, with multiple reports of unsanitary conditions and pest problems documented in 2019, though more recent records show no current infestations, with the most recent bedbug report (June 2025) indicating zero infested units.
The building's maintenance history reveals various structural and safety concerns, including ceiling damage (both emergency and non-emergency complaints), fire safety violations related to self-closing doors, and historical issues with window bars and fire escape access in 2018. While the building has generally passed recent rodent inspections, there have been mixed results in 2023-2025, including one failed inspection in February 2024. The property has maintained an active compliance record regarding bedbug monitoring, with zero reported infestations in the past three filing periods (2022-2025).
Most recent 311 service requests and Department of Buildings complaints related to work without permits were found to have no violations warranted upon inspection in January 2025. A notable violation regarding garbage/recycling storage was recorded and closed in December 2024. The building's overall condition appears variable, with recent inspections showing improvement in some areas, though historical data indicates recurring challenges with maintenance and safety compliance.
