171 East 93rd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11212

171 East 93rd Street is a two-story, four-unit New Law tenement building located in East Flatbush and owned by Keith Blackwood. The building, constructed in 1930, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, with the most notable being a pattern of bedbug reporting violations.

Between 2018 and 2024, the building received four separate violations for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports, though the most recent 2024 report indicates no infested units. In October 2018, the building faced urgent issues with heat and hot water, though these were reportedly resolved quickly according to HPD records.

The building underwent a significant inspection in May 2018 that revealed multiple regulatory compliance issues, including the need for proper posting of gas leak procedures, smoke detector requirements, and carbon monoxide detector requirements in common areas, as well as the installation of self-closing doors and repair of bathroom fixtures in Apartment 1R - all of which were certified as corrected by June 2018. A 2022 illegal conversion complaint was investigated but no violations were found. While there have been several incidents warranting attention, the most recent bedbug reporting compliance suggests the owner is currently maintaining required documentation, though it's worth noting that this building had a history of multiple violations for this specific requirement between 2021 and 2024.
