78 East 55th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203
This two-story, 3-unit residential building located at 78 East 55th Street in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, was constructed in 1910 and is classified as a New Law Tenement.
The property, currently owned by Lawrence Pickens, has experienced consistent regulatory issues over the past four years relating to bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code. Specifically, there have been four consecutive violations from 2021 through 2024, all concerning the failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).
All four violations remain open as of the current date in July 2025, suggesting ongoing non-compliance with this particular aspect of housing maintenance regulation. While these violations specifically pertain to reporting requirements rather than confirmed infestations, the pattern of non-compliance over multiple years could indicate a disregard for overall pest management protocols.
