16 East 29th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 16 East 29th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Hindy Sobel, has been in existence since 2006 and has experienced several noteworthy maintenance and reporting events over the past few years. Most significantly, there appears to have been some initial confusion or compliance issues regarding bedbug reporting in 2021 and 2022, as evidenced by two Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations have since been closed.

However, since these incidents, the building has maintained a perfect record with respect to bedbug infestations: the annual bedbug report filings from 2022 through 2025 consistently show zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, indicating effective management of this potential issue. Additionally, there was one Department of Buildings complaint filed in March 2021 regarding possible unpermitted work in the occupied multiple dwelling, though this complaint was promptly investigated the following day and was found to warrant no violation.

Apart from these issues, the building's recent history suggests proper maintenance and compliance with code requirements, particularly in the area of bedbug management where previous violations have been thoroughly addressed and resolved. The most recent bedbug reports from 2025 confirm that no units have experienced infestations in the past three reporting periods, suggesting an effective ongoing monitoring and prevention strategy.
