607 East 17th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226
The three-unit, three-story building at 607 East 17th Street in Flatbush, owned by Iftikhar Baig and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in 2025, the property has had multiple concerning safety incidents, including an active rat sighting complaint in March 2025 that resulted in confirmed violations by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, along with uninspected complaints regarding carbon monoxide and smoke detectors that were classified as emergencies by HPD.
The building has also shown persistent rodent activity, with inspections in March and April 2025 confirming rat presence, though bait was applied as of April 2025. Historical records reveal ongoing compliance challenges, particularly regarding bedbug reporting, with open violations dating from 2022 through 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.
While the 2020-2021 bedbug report indicated no infested units, there appears to be a pattern of repeated violations regarding this requirement. The building has undergone some permitted work, with two exterior-related permits issued in 2019 and 2023, suggesting the owner is making some efforts to maintain the property. The combination of recent safety concerns, persistent pest issues, and incomplete regulatory compliance suggests ongoing maintenance challenges at this property, with particular attention needed to the building's safety systems and pest management practices.
