521 Maple Street, Brooklyn, NY 11225

The 8-unit, 4-story building at 521 Maple Street in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Akiva Emergi and completed in 2014, has maintained a relatively clean record over the past few years. The property received two housing maintenance code violations in 2021 and 2022 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were subsequently closed.

More recently, in 2021, the building had a Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violation regarding an obstructed exit passageway on the first floor, where bicycles, e-scooters, and kid scooters were blocking the corridor landing to the egress stairs. This violation was resolved with no penalties incurred. Importantly, the building's bedbug reporting history shows consistently clean results over multiple reporting periods from 2020 through 2025, with zero documented infestation or eradication cases.

The most recent bedbug report filed in June 2025 (covering the period from November 2023 to October 2024) shows no infested or previously infested units. However, it is worth noting that two rodent inspections conducted in January 2010 (before the building's 2014 completion) resulted in failures for other reasons, though these issues were likely addressed during construction. The building's recent history suggests active management of pest control and safety standards, with prompt resolution of violations and diligent bedbug reporting indicating a commitment to maintaining unit hygiene and safety.
