263 Cumberland Street, Brooklyn, NY 11205

263 Cumberland Street is a four-story, five-unit residential building located in Fort Greene and owned by Eddie Green. Built in 1899, this old-law tenement has maintained a consistent bedbug reporting pattern over recent years.

The building has experienced repeated violations of Section HMC relating to the failure to file annual bedbug reports with the HPD, with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024 still remaining open. However, it's noteworthy that during the reported filing periods from 2019 through 2022 (with filings submitted in 2021, 2022, and 2023), the building has shown no actual bedbug infestations, with all reports indicating zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units.

The pattern of violations indicates an administrative compliance issue rather than a persistent infestation problem, as the building has consistently reported no bedbug activity when the reports were actually filed. The most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 31, 2022, shows the same clean record as previous years, suggesting effective pest management protocols in place when compared to other buildings with similar violations. The historical violation records from 2021, 2022, and 2023 show these bedbug report violations as "Closed," except for the most recent open violation in 2024, indicating that the building's management had previously resolved such issues through compliance, though the 2024 violation suggests a recurrence of this specific administrative oversight.
