680 East 21st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226
680 East 21st Street is a 6-story, 17-unit residential building located in Flatbush and completed in 2020 under the ownership of Jacob Zimmerman. The building has faced persistent rodent issues, with multiple rat sightings reported throughout 2024 and 2025, despite regular bait applications and inspections indicating ongoing rat activity. The property has also experienced several maintenance challenges, including a heat and hot water emergency in November 2023 that was reportedly resolved upon inspection.
Historical records show the building faced construction-related violations during its 2019-2020 period of establishment, including issues with safety netting, guard rails, and proper pedestrian protection, resulting in several fines totaling $8,750. However, these violations were ultimately resolved. The building's management has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021, consistently reporting zero infested units across all filing periods, most recently in 2024 showing no infestation during the previous year.
The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene has conducted multiple inspections in response to rodent complaints, with 2024 showing violations that required follow-up inspections. While the building's maintenance history shows responsiveness to complaints, the recurring nature of the rodent issues and occasional service disruptions suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and pest control. The most recent rodent inspections in 2025 indicate continued monitoring of these issues, as evidenced by multiple bait applications throughout the year.
