1553 East New York Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11212

1553 East New York Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Brownsville, constructed in 2006 and currently owned by Menachem Levyhaim. The building has experienced recurring administrative issues related to bedbug reporting compliance, with violations recorded in March 2022 and March 2023 for failing to file the annual bedbug report as required under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations.

However, the most recent bedbug report filing from March 2024 covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023 shows no infested dwelling units, with all three units having been successfully treated and no re-infestations reported. The building has maintained a consistent record of no bedbug infestations over the past several reporting periods, including the 2023 report which indicated the same status for the previous year (2022-2023) as well as for the 2020 and 2019 reporting periods.

The only other documented inspection history for the building dates back to 2010, when an initial rodent inspection was conducted and resulted in a passing grade. The building's recent bedbug reporting history suggests improved compliance with HMC requirements, as evidenced by the timely submission of reports in 2024 and 2023, despite the earlier violations. While the building has experienced some administrative challenges regarding bedbug reporting compliance in 2022 and 2023, the actual pest control outcomes have been positive, with successful eradication of any infestations and no reported re-infestation cases.
