878 Lenox Road, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 878 Lenox Road in East Flatbush, owned by Y&Y Holdings, Inc., has experienced several notable maintenance issues since 2019. Most recently, in April 2024, the building received an open violation related to the failure to file an annual bedbug report as required by HPD rules.

This violation followed a pattern, as similar notices were issued in 2023, 2022, and 2021, though these earlier violations were subsequently closed. Going back to November 2019, multiple open violations were documented, including concerning conditions in common areas such as the roof bulkhead, which required repairs, proper lighting, and removal of various encumbrances. These 2019 violations specifically related to fire safety and accessibility concerns, including issues with the ceiling, walls, and fire escape at the east side of the building.

Additional complaint history includes a window frame issue reported in August 2019, which could not be inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development and was consequently closed. Of particular note is the building's bedbug reporting status: while there was no documented infestation during the most recent reporting period (November 2021 - October 2022), this pattern of annual bedbug reporting violations from 2019 through 2024 suggests some ongoing compliance challenges related to pest management procedures. The most recent bedbug report filed in April 2023 indicated zero infested or re-infested dwelling units for the specified reporting period.
