769 52nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220
The three-story, six-unit tenement at 769 52nd Street in Sunset Park, owned by Kitching Mok and built in 1915, has shown consistent attention to regulatory compliance over recent years, particularly regarding pest management. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations from 2019 through 2024, with all five annual reports showing zero cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation. However, there are some notable compliance issues documented in the past.
There have been four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations (2021-2024) related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these were classified as "Class A" violations indicating they were not considered immediately hazardous. The building underwent a plumbing inspection in August 2021 (which resulted in no violations), and there have been two Department of Buildings violations regarding missed inspection filings for external low pressure (2018) and boiler (2017) inspections in 2019 and 2023, respectively. These violations were ultimately dismissed. Three open violations remain active from August 2021, concerning fire escape maintenance, proper posting of housing information guides, and gas leak procedure notices in common areas.
The most recent building inspection history shows some minor maintenance issues that appear to have persisted from 2021, though these violations don't seem to represent immediate safety concerns. The property has undergone regular bedbug reporting as required by HPD rules, with all five filings showing no infestations. The 2024 bedbug report was filed on April 29, 2024, covering the 2022-2023 period with zero infested units. The building's maintenance history suggests a pattern of administrative oversights rather than systemic maintenance issues, with most violations being procedural in nature rather than directly affecting resident comfort or safety.
