68 East 51st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

68 East 51st Street in East Flatbush is a two-story, four-unit residential building constructed in 1930, currently owned by William Lotson. The building has experienced recurring administrative violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code, with documented violations in each of the past four years from 2021 through 2024.

However, the most recent bedbug report filed in July 2024 covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023 indicates no infested dwelling units, no eradicated units, and no re-infestation, suggesting successful compliance with eradication protocols despite the previous violations. Earlier records show rat activity in March 2011, though no rodent issues have been reported in recent years.

The building's most pressing historical concern appears to be the pattern of bedbug reporting violations, though these appear to be more administrative in nature than indicative of ongoing infestations. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting schedule in recent years, with filings in July 2024 and June 2022 showing no current infestation problems. While the building's age and history of violations might raise concerns, the recent absence of reported infestations and successful reporting compliance suggests improved management of pest control protocols.
