256 East 51st Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203
Located in East Flatbush, 256 East 51st Street is a three-story, four-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Lorraine Cordis. The building's recent history demonstrates consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no reported infestations in any of the annual filings from 2020 through February 2025.
The property experienced two Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2021 and 2022 related to the late filing of required bedbug reports, though these violations have since been closed. Prior to this, in 2018, there was a violation regarding gas leak safety notification requirements, which was resolved by December 2018.
The building's health and safety record is otherwise strong, with successful completion of two rodent inspections in 2015, both resulting in passing grades. The frequency of bedbug report violations in 2021-2022 is notable, but this appears to be an administrative oversight rather than an indication of pest presence, as evidenced by the subsequent years' reports showing zero infestations.
