416 Suydam Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The 6-unit, 3-story tenement at 416 Suydam Street in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Solomon Steinlauf, has experienced persistent rodent issues in recent years. The building has had multiple rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents documented between 2022 and 2023, with recent inspections in 2024 showing "Rat Activity" and "Rat Sighting" as recently as April 2024. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene has consistently found violations during these inspections, requiring follow-up inspections.
The property is currently facing active violations for failing to file external low pressure inspections for both 2022 and 2023. The building has also had other notable maintenance issues over the years. In 2019, there were water leak complaints that required inspection, and several housing maintenance code violations were documented between 2018-2024. These include bedbug report filing violations in 2021, and a notable cluster of violations in 2018 involving apartment 2R, which included issues with fire escape access, window guards, and smoke detectors.
Most recently, the bedbug reporting history shows no infested units for the 2023-2024 reporting period, suggesting this issue has been successfully addressed. The property has undergone multiple rodent control efforts, with bait application documented throughout 2023 and continuing inspections into 2024. While recent inspections in 2025 have shown improved conditions with passed inspections, the building's history indicates a recurring pattern of pest management challenges. The most recent bedbug report filing in 2024 shows no current infestations, though the building has faced numerous violations related to both bedbug and rodent management over the past several years.
