214 14th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The three-story, three-unit brownstone at 214 14th Street in South Slope, owned by Mesbah Abdul, has been subject to recurring regulatory oversight related to bedbug reporting compliance over the past four years. Since 2021, the building has received four consecutive Class A violations (2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024) for failing to file the required annual bedbug report in accordance with HPD regulations.

While these violations indicate ongoing non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, it's important to note that the only official bedbug reporting data available from the HPD's system covers the period from November 1, 2020 to October 31, 2021, during which time the building reported zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero instances of re-infestation. The building, constructed in 1899, is classified as an Old Law Tenement and has maintained its original three-story structure throughout its history.

While the repeated bedbug reporting violations suggest some administrative deficiencies in compliance with housing maintenance code requirements, the actual bedbug infestation records (from 2020-2021) indicate the building was free of such issues during that specific reporting period. The pattern of violations appears to primarily relate to paperwork requirements rather than indicating active infestation problems in recent years, though the most recent violation from April 2024 remains unresolved in the system as of October 2023.
