420 Chestnut Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The two-family house at 420 Chestnut Street in East New York, owned by Dongju Qiu, is a two-story residential building constructed in 1899. The property has experienced recurring bedbug issues over the past three years, with one documented infestation in the 2022-2023 reporting period and no infestations recorded in the 2023-2024 reporting period, which ended October 31, 2024.

Prior to these incidents, from 2020-2021 and 2019-2020, there were no recorded bedbug infestations. The most recent bedbug report shows zero infested units, however, previous records indicate one unit required treatment in the 2022-2023 period. The building's maintenance history shows an active response to pest management requirements, with the most recent Department of Buildings permit issued in March 2023 under job number 340880728 for an electrical work modification (EW type permit).

A rodent inspection conducted in May 2012 resulted in a passing grade. While the bedbug situation appears to have improved in the latest reporting period, the recurring nature of infestations from 2020 through 2023 suggests this has been a significant pest management challenge for the property. The recent electrical work permit indicates ongoing building maintenance and compliance with city regulations, though no other significant building violations or issues have been recorded in the available data.
