244 Suydam Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
244 Suydam Street is a 6-unit, 3-story old law tenement building constructed in 1931 in Bushwick, currently owned by Alfonso Cardenas. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with three documented emergencies between 2018 and 2024, though investigations by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) typically found these conditions had been restored prior to inspection.
In late 2024, an infestation of roaches was confirmed in apartment 3L, which was later certified as abated. The building has had three violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024, though recent filings in 2025 show no units were infested during the 2023-2024 period.
The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections over the past three years, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 passing, though there were instances of rat activity reported in April and October 2024. The building's recent history shows improved pest management, with no reported infestations in the latest bedbug report and successful rodent control measures in 2025.
