399 17th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The three-story, six-unit building at 399 17th Street in South Slope, owned by Christian Michel, is a 1931 Old Law Tenement property that has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance under New York City's Housing Maintenance Code. While the building has achieved regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2022, with all reports showing zero infested units, there are currently open violations from 2023 and 2024 related to the annual bedbug report filing requirement.

Importantly, these violations appear to be administrative in nature rather than indicating an ongoing infestation problem, as no actual infestations have been reported in recent years, and the building's management has previously demonstrated timely compliance with reporting requirements. The bedbug reporting history shows a clear pattern of proactive management, with all previous annual filings (covering periods from 2017-2018 through 2020-2021) indicating no infestations or eradicated units, and no records of re-infestations.

The most recent violations from 2023 and 2024, which remain open as of July 2025, appear to be the first significant compliance issue in this area since the implementation of the bedbug reporting requirement, though they should be interpreted as administrative oversights rather than indications of a pest problem. The property has no other recorded violations or notable incidents in the available data, suggesting generally responsible management of building maintenance and operations.
