482 Jefferson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
482 Jefferson Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, constructed in 1899 and currently owned by 482 Jefferson LLC. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues over the past several years, with the most recent Health Department inspections in 2023 and 2024 showing minor violations but generally passing inspections. More concerningly, the building has multiple open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2022 to 2024 related to the filing of annual bedbug reports, which appears to be an ongoing compliance issue.
The building has undergone various construction activities over the past few years, with several permits issued between 2020 and 2023 for different types of work, including alteration and excavation. In late 2021, multiple construction safety violations were documented, including issues with scaffolding, fire extinguishers, and inadequate site documentation, though these were ultimately resolved. There have also been several instances of immediately hazardous violations related to building maintenance that were dismissed, suggesting previous concerns about building conditions. The property has maintained regular pest control efforts, with multiple bait applications recorded in 2019 and subsequent inspections showing generally improved conditions.
Three separate rodent-related 311 complaints were filed between 2018 and 2023, though none resulted in significant violations. Additionally, there were complaints filed regarding potential illegal conversions and unpermitted work in late 2023, though inspections did not warrant any violations. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and improvement work being conducted, with permits issued for various projects in 2020, 2021, 2022, and most recently in October 2023. The presence of both alteration and excavation permits suggests ongoing investment in the property's maintenance and improvement.
