1623 55th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The three-unit, two-story New Law Tenement building at 1623 55th Street in Borough Park, owned by Shimon Levy and constructed in 1931, has an ongoing bedbug reporting compliance issue that has persisted into 2024. Most recently, in April 2024, the property received an open Class A violation for failing to file the required annual bedbug report with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), which represents a notable concern for resident safety and maintenance standards.

This violation follows a pattern of similar infractions, as the building was previously cited for bedbug reporting non-compliance in 2022 and 2021, though those violations were eventually closed. Despite these violations, the building's documented bedbug history shows no confirmed infestations during the reporting periods.

The most recent bedbug report, filed in March 2023 for the period from November 2021 to October 2022, along with an earlier report from April 2021 for the period from November 2019 to October 2020, both confirmed zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units. While the absence of actual infestations is positive, the persistent pattern of non-compliance with reporting requirements suggests potential oversight in building maintenance practices. The building's overall condition beyond this reporting issue is not detailed in the available records.
