51 Louisa Street, Brooklyn, NY 11218
51 Louisa Street is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in the Kensington neighborhood of Brooklyn, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Agha Mehdishah. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the years, with the most notable cluster of problems occurring in May 2019 when multiple complaints were filed simultaneously regarding various conditions including heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, as well as issues with mold, pests, ceiling paint/plaster, and garbage/recycling storage.
While the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) investigated these complaints, no violations were issued, and the cases were closed. The building has since shown a pattern of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with documentation indicating no infested units in the most recent 2022-2023 reporting period, though records show three units were affected and subsequently eradicated in the 2019-2020 period. Recent inspections from 2021 to 2024 have consistently documented administrative violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under Section HMC of the Housing Maintenance Code.
However, as of April 2024, these violations have been appropriately addressed, with the most recent bedbug filing in May 2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units for the 2022-2023 reporting period. The building's management has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements in subsequent filings, with the 2023-2024 period showing no infestations or eradications. While the property has experienced various maintenance issues in the past, the recent focus on bedbug reporting compliance and the absence of new pest-related complaints since 2019 suggest improved management of these specific concerns.
