309 Macon Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

309 Macon Street is a 3-story, 2-unit residential building in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 1886 and currently owned by Irene Smith. The property has experienced several notable maintenance and regulatory events over the past few years. Most recently, in 2024, the building was cited for failing to file its 2022 External Low Pressure Inspection report, which remains an active violation.

The building has maintained a consistent pattern of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent report from July 2024 showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units for the period of November 2022 to October 2023. Between 2021 and 2024, there were four consecutive years (2021-2024) where the building received violations for failing to submit the annual bedbug report, though these have now been addressed through proper filing. The building's history with rodent inspections shows a mixed record, with two instances of rat activity noted in 2018 and 2022, though all subsequent inspections (2022-2024) have passed.

A significant heat/hot water complaint was filed in February 2019, though this issue was promptly investigated and resolved by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development within two days. It's worth noting that the building's use classification has changed to "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS B," indicating a status change in the building's usage or occupancy type. The combination of some historical rat activity, a recent open violation regarding pressure inspection filing, and the 2019 heat/hot water issue suggests periodic maintenance challenges, though these appear to have been generally addressed through subsequent compliance.
