17 St Marks Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217

The three-story, three-unit old law tenement building at 17 St Marks Place in Boerum Hill, owned by William Clark and dating back to 1899, has experienced ongoing regulatory non-compliance issues related to bedbug reporting requirements over the past several years.

The building has received four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024, all citing the owner's failure to submit the required annual bedbug reports to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024 still remaining open as of the current date. This pattern of non-compliance raises concerns about the owner's attention to housing maintenance requirements and potentially affects resident comfort and safety.

On a more positive note, the building's records show that a permit for work classified as "EW" (presumably exterior work) was issued on November 14, 2023, under job number 340904828, suggesting that some maintenance or improvement work was authorized. However, the relationship between this permit and the outstanding bedbug reporting violations is unclear, as the nature of the permitted work does not directly address the ongoing regulatory compliance issues.
