636 Rockaway Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11236

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 636 Rockaway Parkway in East Flatbush, owned by Albert Payne, has been subject to regular inspections and reporting requirements since at least 2020. The building, constructed in 1945, transitioned to a "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A" designation, indicating its current legal status as an apartment building.

While there have been two Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports in 2021 and 2022, these violations were subsequently closed. Notably, the building has maintained an impressive record regarding actual bedbug infestations; between 2020 and 2025, all seven bedbug reporting periods (covering November 2019 through October 2024) documented zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management practices since the initial violations.

The only other documented incident was a complaint about work being done without a permit in May 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access to investigate during their final attempt. The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance with the requirement to file annual reports, with the most recent filings in December 2024 confirming the continued absence of any bedbug issues. Given the property's age and history, the attention to bedbug reporting and the absence of pest issues since 2020 can be seen as a positive aspect of the building's maintenance record, though the construction year and the nature of the converted class designation suggest the building may retain some characteristics typical of its original construction period.
