424 8th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The three-unit, three-story building at 424 8th Street in Park Slope, owned by Karen Schlain and constructed in 1889, has experienced consistent monitoring and reporting requirements regarding bedbug infestations over recent years. Between 2021 and 2023, there were three documented violations related to the failure to file the annual bedbug report in accordance with HPD rules, though these violations appear to have been resolved as evidenced by subsequent filings.

The property has maintained a clean record with respect to actual infestations, as shown in the bedbug report filings from 2019 to 2025, which consistently indicated zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units. More recently, there have been two complaints regarding illegal hotel rooms in the building - one in August 2023 and another in November 2023.

Both investigations were unable to substantiate the claims, with the August complaint being dismissed due to insufficient information/unable to locate address, and the November complaint resulting in no violation warranted for complaint at time of inspection. The most recent bedbug filing from January 2025 shows the same pattern of compliance, with no reported infestations during the 2024-2025 reporting period. While the building has experienced some administrative and reporting issues regarding bedbug documentation in the past, the property currently appears to be in compliance with both bedbug reporting requirements and has had no verified violations related to illegal hotel room usage.
