AI summary · updated June 2026

This two-story, four-unit New Law tenement building at 225 East 2nd Street in Kensington, owned by Qamiran Qoku, has a documented history of compliance issues related to bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2023. The building received three separate Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2021, 2022, and 2023, each citing the failure to file the annual bedbug report as required by HPD rules. These violations were classified as "A" violations, indicating they were considered serious. However, the most recent bedbug reporting data from March 2024 indicates no infestation issues during the 2022-2023 and 2021-2022 reporting periods, with zero infested or re-infested units recorded, suggesting successful remediation of the previous compliance issues.

Additionally, there was one public health-related incident reported in May 2021 involving standing water and tires that attracted a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection, though access to the property was not granted. This service request was closed without resolution. Moving forward from October 2023, the building's most recent records show no current violations or active complaints, with the 2024 bedbug report showing full compliance with the required reporting procedures, as no violations have been issued since 2023.
