176 Amity Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

This four-story, 10-unit residential building at 176 Amity Street in Cobble Hill, owned by Lucy Trieloff, was constructed in 1860 and is classified as a heretofore converted Class A property. The building has experienced several ventilation-related issues in recent years, with two significant incidents in 2022: an indoor air quality complaint about chemical vapors/odors in May (which was addressed with an advisory to the management) and a ventilation system complaint in April that HPD could not inspect due to lack of access.

Most notably, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development issued two separate Class A violations in early 2022 and March 2023 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these were subsequently closed. However, there is positive news regarding pest management: the building's bedbug reporting records from the past four filing periods (2021-2024) show no infestations, with all units reporting zero instances of infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units.

The most recent bedbug report, filed in December 2024, covered the period from November 2023 to October 2024, confirming continued compliance with the reporting requirement and a successful track record of maintaining a pest-free environment. While the ventilation issues in 2022 raised concerns about indoor air quality, particularly with chemical odors, the absence of recent complaints or violations related to these issues suggests they may have been resolved, though it's worth noting that building access issues have historically complicated inspection efforts.
