55 Dean Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201
55 Dean Street, a three-story Old Law Tenement building located in Boerum Hill and owned by Michael Birnbaum, has been subject to recurring bedbug reporting violations over the past four years.
Between 2021 and 2024, the building received four separate Housing Maintenance Code violations for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports, with all these violations being marked as closed. However, the most recent bedbug report filing in May 2025 indicates a completely different situation, with the filing for the period of November 2023 to October 2024 showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units.
This suggests that either the bedbug issue has been fully resolved or that the building is now in compliance with reporting requirements, though it is worth noting that historical patterns of violations occurred despite what appears to be a successful eradication process demonstrated by the 2025 report. The building itself is a historic three-unit structure built in 1899, representing typical late 19th-century New York City residential architecture.
