604 East 17th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 604 East 17th Street in Flatbush, owned by Peter Yeung, was constructed in 1936 as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety events over the past few years, particularly relating to pest control.

Most recently, in May 2025, there was a mouse sighting reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though this complaint was ultimately referred to another agency. The building's rodent-related issues are highlighted by an April 2025 inspection which noted rat activity, followed by a passed compliance inspection in May 2025.

The building has shown consistent attention to bedbug reporting requirements, with multiple annual reports filed between 2021 and 2024 indicating no infested dwelling units, no eradicated units, and no re-infested units during the reporting periods. Despite this clean record on bedbugs, the property has had three separate Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were marked as "Closed." It's worth noting that while the building has maintained relatively good compliance with bedbug remediation and reporting, the more recent rodent issues suggest an ongoing challenge with pest management in the building.
