21 Linden Street, Brooklyn, NY 11221

21 Linden Street is a 2-story, 6-unit residential building located in Bushwick, built in 1931 and currently owned by Anand Chetram. The building has undergone several maintenance and compliance checks over the past few years, with particular attention to rodent control and bedbug management. Notably, from 2019-2023, there were two documented rodent-related complaints (in 2019) and four rodent inspections in 2022 that initially failed but subsequently passed compliance checks.

The building's bedbug reporting shows no infestations reported between 2021-2025, with the most recent reports (2023-2025) indicating zero infested or eradicated units. The building's history reveals some concerns from the 1980s, including multiple violations related to safety systems and maintenance, such as broken sprinkler heads, defective doors, and improper signage, all of which have since been resolved with certification in 2023. Recent years have shown regular maintenance activity, with several permits issued between 2018-2022 for various works, including plumbing and electrical maintenance. The property has maintained consistent compliance with health department requirements, as evidenced by regular passing rodent inspections in 2023-2025 and multiple completed bedbug reports showing no current infestations.

Two construction-related Environmental Control Board violations were issued in 2020 regarding fence maintenance and project information signage, though these were resolved with penalties of $1,280, which have been noted as paid. The building's recent history (2021-2025) indicates improved maintenance practices, particularly in terms of pest control and general upkeep, with regular rodent inspections passing consistently and no recent bedbug issues reported. However, the property did experience two rodent-related complaints in 2019, suggesting a previous period where pest control may have been a concern, though this appears to have been addressed based on subsequent inspections. The building's maintenance record shows active management response to violations, with timely resolution of issues and regular filing of required reports, including the recent bedbug reports showing no current infestations.
