AI summary · updated June 2026

The three-story, six-unit tenement building at 328 Starr Street in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by George Martin, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most recently, in December 2024, there was a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection that found violations related to an unsanitary animal situation involving a dog on the property, requiring follow-up inspections. The building has also faced electrical problems, as evidenced by a lighting failure emergency in April 2022 that required HPD intervention, though this issue was subsequently resolved.

While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past five years, with all recent reports from 2019 through December 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units, there have been some concerns about rodent activity. The most recent rodent inspections show mixed results: in early 2025, the building passed an inspection in February but failed one in January for unspecified reasons. A rat activity finding was recorded in April 2024, representing one of the more significant pest management challenges in recent history. Of note is the building's relatively consistent pattern of achieving passing results in most inspections conducted between 2018 and 2024, though the most recent cleanliness and pest control situations suggest ongoing monitoring may be required.
