570 Empire Boulevard, Brooklyn, NY 11225

The two-story, four-unit New Law tenement building at 570 Empire Boulevard in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Aron Joseph and constructed in 1923, has encountered persistent issues requiring attention over recent years. Notably, there is an ongoing pattern of non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 through 2024, all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations.

While this issue appears to be administrative in nature rather than directly affecting tenant safety, it does indicate potential lapses in building management. In addition to the bedbug reporting violations, the building has experienced challenges with rodent control, failing inspections in both May and June of 2022, though it successfully passed similar inspections in 2011 and 2019.

The combination of these pest-related violations suggests attention to building maintenance and pest management protocols may be needed. The most recent bedbug reporting violation from April 2024 remains open, indicating that as of this date, the building management had not achieved compliance with this particular requirement. The property has maintained its original 1923 structure with 2 stories, and despite its age, the primary concerns appear to be related to reporting compliance and pest management rather than structural integrity or major safety issues.
