766 56th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The two-story, five-unit residential building at 766 56th Street in Sunset Park, owned by Yuk Cheng, has a notable history of bedbug reporting violations over the past several years. The 1926 New Law Tenement has consistently received Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent citations occurring in 2024 and 2023, both indicating the failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug reports as required by HPD rules.

While there were violations in 2022 and prior years that have since been resolved, the current open violations from 2023 and 2024 remain pertinent. It's worth noting that during the official bedbug reporting period from November 2020 to October 2021, the building reported no infested units, no units undergoing eradication, and no re-infestation incidents, suggesting that while the building has had compliance issues regarding reporting, actual bedbug presence may not have been verified through the official reporting process.

The building's pattern of bedbug reporting violations began in 2021 and has continued through 2024, with the most recent violations occurring in April 2024 and March 2023, both classified as "A" violations under Housing Maintenance Code. The violations indicate a lack of compliance with the requirement to file annual bedbug reports, though the building's bedbug reporting history shows no documented infestations during the 2020-2021 reporting period. Given the recurring nature of these violations, the most current open violations from 2024 and 2023 are particularly noteworthy, though it's important to emphasize that these violations pertain specifically to reporting requirements rather than confirmed infestations or ongoing pest issues.
