1314 Myrtle Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221
The two-family residence at 1314 Myrtle Avenue in Bushwick, Brooklyn, has experienced persistent rodent issues over the past three years, with a particularly concerning pattern emerging in 2024. The 1920-built, two-story building owned by Benjamin Allen has undergone rodent inspections approximately bi-annually since 2022, revealing significant challenges in maintaining a pest-free environment.
Most notably, between April 2024 and April 2025, there were four documented instances of rat activity (November 2024, October 2024, April 2024, and November 2023), with only one inspection during this period resulting in a passing grade (April 2025). The building's inspection history shows a mixed pattern of compliance and initial inspections, with three instances of passing inspections (April 2025, April 2023, and October 2022).
The building has not had any recorded complaints or violations related to its two-family classification, and aside from the rodent issues, no other significant safety or maintenance concerns have been documented in the available records. The most recent inspection shows a passing result, indicating some possible improvement in pest management protocols, though the historical pattern suggests this will need ongoing attention.
