1665 55th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 1665 55th Street in Borough Park, owned by Elliot Moskowitz, has been in operation since 1930. The property has experienced recurring issues related to bedbug reporting compliance, with Housing Maintenance Code violations documented in 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024, all concerning the failure to submit the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations.

These violations are classified as "Class A," which indicates they are likely to affect tenant comfort and safety. Notably, the building's bedbug reporting history shows that during the period from November 2020 to October 2021, there were no reported instances of infestation in any dwelling units, no units requiring eradication, and no cases of re-infestation, suggesting that previous bedbug issues may have been resolved prior to the recent reporting compliance violations.

In a historical context, there was one significant safety-related violation recorded in May 1986 concerning the side entrance door lock mechanism, which required correction of a double cylinder key-operated lock, though this issue was subsequently resolved and certified as corrected in September 2022. While the building has maintained a generally stable record over the past four decades, the pattern of bedbug reporting violations in recent years represents the most current compliance challenge, with the most recent violation still listed as open as of April 2024.
