1224 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The 4-story, 6-unit tenement building at 1224 Bedford Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Kathryn Lightner, has experienced several notable maintenance issues since 2018, with the most recent inspections showing consistent improvement in pest management.
While the property has maintained an active rodent monitoring program, with inspections occurring every six months from 2022 onwards, the building faced some challenges in the early 2020s. In 2022, there were two significant housing maintenance code violations: one regarding inadequate heat supply in apartment 1B and another concerning access to the boiler room.
The building also had a period of bedbug-related concerns, with one unit reported infested in 2019, but subsequent annual reports from 2020 through 2024 show no further infestations. More recently, starting in 2023, the property has demonstrated improved conditions, with all rodent inspections from 2023-2025 showing "Passed" results, including three consecutive passed inspections in 2024-2025 and the most recent inspection in June 2025 also passing with no violations noted.
