699 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 699 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, owned by Baruch Davidson, has experienced persistent regulatory compliance issues over the past several years, with particular emphasis on its handling of bedbug reporting requirements. Between 2021 and 2024, the property has accumulated four separate Class A violations under the Housing Maintenance Code, all related to the failure to file the mandated annual bedbug reports with the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

These open violations, which carry potential implications for resident comfort and safety, demonstrate ongoing noncompliance with basic housing maintenance requirements. The building's other recorded incident was a complaint regarding defective or exposed electrical wiring in September 2022, though this was not directly related to the bedbug reporting issues.

This electrical complaint was marked as closed shortly after its filing, on October 1, 2022, with the inspector unable to gain access for evaluation on what was noted as a second final attempt. While this electrical issue appears to have been resolved, the building's persistent bedbug reporting violations, with no records indicating resolution or certification of compliance, represent the most significant pattern of regulatory noncompliance on record for this property.
