253 21st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The three-story, three-unit building at 253 21st Street in Sunset Park, owned by Arnulfo Lora and built in 1901 under the OLD LAW TENEMENT classification, has an ongoing pattern of Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements.
Since 2022, the building has received three violations (in 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024) for failing to file the mandatory annual bedbug report with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though these violations are administrative in nature rather than indicating an active infestation. Interestingly, the bedbug reporting records from 2021 show a full year (November 2019 to October 2020) during which no infested units were reported, and none required eradication or experienced re-infestation, suggesting good management practices during that period.
The building's rodent inspection from December 2018 passed successfully, indicating no rodent issues were present at that time. While the repeated bedbug report filing violations represent a pattern of non-compliance with HPD requirements, they should be interpreted as administrative violations rather than direct indicators of current pest problems.
