751 Manhattan Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222

751 Manhattan Avenue is a 4-story, 6-unit residential building located in Greenpoint, built in 1930 and currently owned by Diane Effros. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all six annual Bedbug Reports filed between 2021 and 2025 indicating zero cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation. However, there have been two notable Department of Buildings complaints in the past two years.

In February 2024, a complaint regarding work without a permit in an occupied multiple dwelling was investigated and found to warrant no violations at the time of inspection. A more concerning issue occurred in August 2023, when a complaint was filed regarding a potentially illegal Certificate of Occupancy. This complaint went through two final inspection attempts in October 2023, but the inspector was unable to gain access to the premises.

The building's history of housing maintenance code violations includes a 2021 citation for failure to file the annual bedbug report, though this violation is marked as closed. While the recent bedbug reporting shows consistent compliance with documentation requirements from 2021 through the present, the complaint regarding the Certificate of Occupancy suggests there may be unresolved building documentation issues. The property has shown a pattern of timely addressing violations and maintaining required reporting, though the inability of inspectors to access the building in October 2023 raises some concerns about maintenance visibility.
