297 Irving Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The 5-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building at 297 Irving Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Steve Lee, has undergone regular inspections and faced various compliance issues in recent years. Built in 1931, the property has shown a recurring pattern of rodent activity, with the most recent inspection in June 2025 passing, but earlier compliance inspections in 2024 indicated rat activity.
The building has also been cited for multiple violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2024, though recent filings in 2025 show no infested units reported for the period. The Department of Buildings has flagged the property for not filing required external low-pressure inspections in 2023, and a December 2023 inspection resulted in a violation for inadequate window A/C support brackets with a $655 penalty. The building has a documented history of compliance issues requiring attention, including a plumbing work complaint from 2018 that resulted in an inability to gain access for inspection.
Despite these challenges, many recent inspections have shown improvements, particularly in bedbug reporting compliance. The property has maintained a pattern of passing initial rodent inspections, though periodic compliance checks suggest ongoing monitoring may be necessary. The building's overall record indicates active management with regular bedbug reporting and attempts to address identified violations, though some requirements have been overlooked or filed late.
