673 56th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The five-story New Law Tenement building at 673 56th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Shike Li, has experienced several notable events since its construction in 1924. Most recently, in 2023-2025, the building filed its annual bedbug report showing no instances of infestation, including no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

This follows a pattern of compliance, as previous bedbug reporting periods from 2022-2023 and all prior years also showed zero infestations, despite receiving three consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2021-2023 for failing to file the annual bedbug report - all of which were subsequently closed. The building underwent various permitted work between 2018 and 2020, including multiple equipment, plumbing, and electrical improvements, as indicated by the several permits issued during this period.

In 2019, there were three complaints registered - two related to construction safety compliance and one concerning permit issues - though inspections did not warrant any violations. A notable violation related to failure to file the annual boiler 2017 inspection report was issued in November 2019 but was dismissed in August 2021. The most recent inspection dates and remaining open complaints are from 2019, suggesting that recent years have seen improved compliance with Department of Buildings requirements.
