166 Patchen Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 166 Patchen Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Alacia Harvey, has a notable history of housing maintenance code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years. Specifically, the building has received four consecutive violations between 2021 and 2024 (most recently in April 2024) for failing to file the mandatory annual bedbug report as required by HPD regulations, with all four violations still remaining open as of October 2023.

This pattern of non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements is particularly concerning, as it suggests ongoing issues with record-keeping or communication regarding pest management. In contrast, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections, with the most recent successful inspection occurring in June 2025, and previous passes recorded in May 2024, October 2022, and May 2013.

The maintenance of rodent control standards over this extended period is a positive aspect of the building's upkeep. While the bedbug reporting violations indicate potential concerns about overall pest management communication, it's worth noting that these violations pertain specifically to reporting requirements rather than direct evidence of infestations. However, the repeated nature of these violations over multiple years suggests that this particular regulatory requirement has not been adequately addressed by the property management.
