Augrented Insights Report for 966 Bedford Avenue

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 966 Bedford Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Eugenia Van Drost and built in 1905, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there are ongoing violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements dating back to 2021 that remain open as of October 2023. The building has also faced multiple enforcement actions regarding construction work, with several complaints about work being done without proper permits, including a partially completed balcony project that resulted in a $5,000 penalty in October 2024 for violating a partial stop work order.

The property has experienced recurring rodent issues, with documented rat activity in 2023 and 2025, though some compliance inspections have yielded passing results. Two specific incidents of unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage were reported in 2024, while the building's maintenance history shows a pattern of work contrary to stop work orders, particularly during 2024 when multiple violations were issued for continuing unauthorized construction activities. Recent inspections and complaints reveal persistent challenges with proper maintenance and compliance adherence.

The property has active ECB violations as of October 2024 related to unauthorized construction work, with two open violations issued in January 2024 for continuing work despite stop work orders, though some older violations from 2023 have been resolved. The building's rodent control efforts show mixed results, with rat activity reported in multiple inspections throughout 2023-2025, highlighting ongoing pest management challenges. The property has also undergone Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections in 2024, indicating monitoring under this specific regulatory framework.
