537 Bradford Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207
The 2-story, 4-unit residential building at 537 Bradford Street in East New York, owned by James Newkirk, has been subject to recurring bedbug reporting violations over the past four years. Between 2021 and 2024, the property received four separate Notices of Violation (NOV), all indicating non-compliance with the Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regarding the required annual bedbug reporting to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).
These violations, classified as "A" grade, remain open as of the most recent inspection in April 2024. The building's earlier history shows a clean record in terms of pest control, with successful rodent inspections in 2011 and 2012, suggesting that while the current bedbug reporting violations are significant, the building had previously maintained compliance with relevant housing codes.
The persistent nature of the bedbug reporting violations over multiple years - currently spanning from 2021 through 2024 - indicates an ongoing issue with compliance rather than an isolated incident. The building, constructed in 1930 and classified as a "New Law Tenement," has demonstrated these specific compliance challenges in recent years, which warrant attention from a regulatory oversight perspective.
