703 Crescent Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The three-story, three-unit building at 703 Crescent Street in East New York, owned by Garfield Fletcher, has experienced several notable events since its construction in 2004. Most recently, in April 2024, the building received a Housing Maintenance Code violation related to the requirement to file annual bedbug reports, continuing a pattern from previous years including inspections in 2023, 2022, and 2021.

While these violations indicate some administrative compliance issues, the most recent bedbug report period from November 2022 to October 2023 shows no reported infestations, with zero infested or eradicated units and no re-infestations. In terms of maintenance and safety issues, the building has faced some infrastructure challenges, including a power outage in May 2021 that was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, though no violations were issued.

Additionally, there is an ongoing Department of Health complaint from June 2021 regarding rodent activity, with the status still listed as in progress. The building's exterior lighting was found deficient in April 2021, resulting in another violation. It's worth noting that the building passed an initial rodent inspection in April 2012, suggesting that while rodent issues have been documented in more recent years, they are not a long-standing problem.
