466 Franklin Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11238

The three-story, two-unit brownstone at 466 Franklin Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant has a long history dating back to 1899, currently owned by Nabir Uddin. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, most notably a significant complaint in late November 2023 that was marked as an emergency but unable to be verified due to lack of access for inspection. Plumbing concerns, particularly related to radiators, were reported in April 2023, also as emergencies, but inspections were similarly constrained by access issues.

The property has maintained compliance with regular rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2020 through 2025, though a rodent sighting was reported in April 2023. Four consecutive annual violations from 2021 to 2024 remain open regarding the failure to file mandatory bedbug reports, representing a persistent administrative oversight. Additionally, a gas utility referral in 2018 was noted but marked as closed after access was denied for inspection.

Despite these challenges, it's noteworthy that the building has successfully passed multiple rodent inspections and various departmental examinations over the years. The repeated access issues encountered by inspectors (documented in multiple complaints) suggest potential challenges in obtaining timely resolutions for building maintenance concerns. The presence of multiple open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements indicates a pattern of non-compliance with this specific regulatory requirement, though this does not necessarily imply an ongoing infestation problem.
