347 Greene Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The four-story, seven-unit residential building at 347 Greene Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Eli Tabak, has experienced several noteworthy maintenance issues since 2019. Most recently, between 2023 and 2025, the building underwent regular rodent inspections, with results showing consistent compliance and only one instance of rat activity in May 2023.

The property has maintained an active bedbug monitoring record from 2019 through 2024, consistently reporting zero infested dwelling units, suggesting effective pest management practices. A significant concern occurred in 2021-2022 when multiple rodent-related complaints were filed with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), though subsequent inspections either found no violations or confirmed follow-up actions were required. The building has also faced some regulatory challenges, including two violation notices in 2024 and 2021 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these were subsequently closed.

A Housing Maintenance Code emergency complaint regarding heat/hot water in December 2019 and an open violation from 2011 concerning inadequate exterior lighting of the front entranceway remain as historical issues, the latter dating back to the building's century-old structure. Reviews by the Department of Buildings have generally shown favorable outcomes, with most complaints being closed without violations, including a professional certification compliance audit in 2018. The building has demonstrated improvements in recent years, with all rodent inspections since 2022 showing "Passed" results or required bait application, indicating active management of pest control measures.
