1522 Gates Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11237
The four-unit, three-story old law tenement building at 1522 Gates Avenue in Bushwick, owned by Kang Yau, has been under consistent scrutiny regarding its compliance with housing maintenance codes over the past several years.
Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with recorded violations in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024, all of which remain open as of April 2025.
While this recurring violation shows a lack of compliance with HPD requirements, it's worth noting that the building has consistently passed its rodent inspections in recent years, with successful passes recorded in 2022, 2024, and most recently in April 2025, as well as in 2012. The building, constructed in 1931, has maintained its basic safety standards with respect to rodent control, but the persistent bedbug reporting violations suggest a need for improved compliance with housing maintenance regulations, particularly regarding pest management reporting requirements.
