178 33rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11232

The four-story, eight-unit tenement building at 178 33rd Street in Sunset Park, owned by Hailing Chen, was constructed in 1923 and is classified as a New Law Tenement. The building's most recent housing maintenance issue occurred in March 2023, when it received a violation for failing to file the required annual bedbug report with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

However, this violation appears to have been resolved, as subsequent reports from May 2023 indicate successful filing of the bedbug report for the period covering November 2022 to October 2023, with no recorded cases of infestation or eradication during that time. A review of the building's bedbug reporting history from 2020 through 2025 shows consistent compliance with reporting requirements, with all filings documenting zero infested units and no instances of eradication or re-infestation.

The building's pest management history is notable for its rodent inspection results: while an initial inspection in July 2011 resulted in a failure for unspecified "Other Reasons," a follow-up compliance inspection later that month showed a passing result. Since that time, there have been no recorded rodent violations or inspections, suggesting either improved conditions or a lapse in inspection records. While the building has had some regulatory violations, particularly in 2023 regarding bedbug report filing, the management has maintained subsequent compliance, with no documented bedbug infestations over the past five reporting periods.
